Gene Watson lyrics - Just At Dawn

album: Paper Rosie (1977)
album: Love in the Hot Afternoon & Paper Rosie (2002)
genre: 

(Bill Emerson - Terry Hamilton)

The heaven that we shared so long has suddenly become a living hell
And the things that felt yesterday today don't feel so well
Strong roots of resentment outgrew seeds of love I thought were so well planted
And he took you from me while I stood by and foolishly took you for granted.

He must have said and done the little things you wanted me to say and do
But I always put simple minded selfish hearted me ahead of you
You know it never crossed my mind that someday I might find myself alone
Until I awoke this morning just at dawn it dawned on me that you were gone.

At dawn I found myself alone not feeling well
I went to sleep last night in heaven woke up in the hell
You know it never crossed my mind that someday I might find myself alone
Until I awoke this morning just at dawn it dawned on me that you were gone.

Just at dawn it dawned on me that you were gone...
