Lyric Come Sundown
(Kris Kristofferson)
I heard the front door closing softly
As I wakened from my sleep
With the last touch of her lips Lord
Like a whisper on my cheek.
And I cursed the sun for rising
For the worst, Lord, is yet to come
Cause this morning she s just leaving
But come sundown she ll be gone.
See the lipstick on the pillow
That I placed beneath her head
And the soft sheets still feel warm, Lord
Where she lay upon my bed.
And it hurts to know it s over
For the hurt, Lord, has just begun
Cause this morning she s just leaving
But come sundown she ll be gone...
I heard the front door closing softly
As I wakened from my sleep
With the last touch of her lips Lord
Like a whisper on my cheek.
And I cursed the sun for rising
For the worst, Lord, is yet to come
Cause this morning she s just leaving
But come sundown she ll be gone.
See the lipstick on the pillow
That I placed beneath her head
And the soft sheets still feel warm, Lord
Where she lay upon my bed.
And it hurts to know it s over
For the hurt, Lord, has just begun
Cause this morning she s just leaving
But come sundown she ll be gone...
