WRITTEN BY: OWEN TEMPLE
I spent several days thinking of the ways
I would say we’re through
But when I let you go, I did not know
That I still cared for you
But last Saturday night ‘neath the barroom light
I saw you out with him
And in a matter of time, I changed my mind
I wanted you back again
Who’d a thought that I’d be feeling sorry
I’d have guessed that I’d be doing well
Well I saw you and my peace of mind went to pieces
It goes to show with love you never can tell
Well I did not go to the rodeo
But I heard you were there
Now the talk of the town is the love you found
They say you’re quite a pair
I thought wait and see you’ll be back with me
It’s just a matter of time
But something’s changed they say you’ve got a different way
Of smiling since you were mine
Who’d a thought that I’d be feeling sorry
I’d have guessed that I’d be doing well
Well I saw you and my peace of mind went to pieces
Just goes to show with love you never can tell
Now it’s lonely nights and neon light
Every day’s just the same
Since a church room crowd gathered around
To hear you change your name
So I sit and drink and sometimes think
About getting out of town
But I never go ’cause you know
She just might come back around
Who’d a thought that I’d be feeling sorry
I’d have guessed that I’d be doing well
Well I saw you and my peace of mind went to pieces
It just goes to show with love you never can tell
Just goes to show with love you never can tell
