I love puns too!

That Was All She Wrote

She woke up one night and decided it was over

I came home from work to find out she was gone

We would fight, but the bottom line is I still love her

I thought she knew this was true, but I guess I’m wrong

CHORUS #1

For there on the table that caught my eye

Was a simple, hand-written note

She had chosen a single word, “goodbye”,

And that was all she wrote

Maybe I’ve been working on working too hard

Maybe I shouldn’t have let things just be

Maybe there was too much time apart

To show what she really meant to me

Well, hindsight has such perfect visions

When you’re busy and selfish, you don’t set things straight

You allow outside pressure inside decisions

From the looks of things now, it’s just too late

CHORUS #1

For there on the table that caught my eye

Was a simple, hand-written note

She had chosen a single word, “goodbye”,

And that was all she wrote

BRIDGE

I never knew why I blew my one last chance

Was it too hot-headed or more romance?

If she’d stayed, I’d give in to all demands

But my fate is no longer in my hands

CHORUS #2

For there on the table getting wet from my eye

Was a simple, hand-written note

She had chosen a single word, “goodbye”,

And that was all she wrote

And that was all she wrote

And that was all she wrote

She left a single word note

And that was all she wrote

    Somehow I feel like crying in my beer when I read your lyrics. And it feels like that is what YOU are doing. That being said, it does appear as though you have gone through a traumatic split up with somebody and I can relate to that. It's just that I would rather not. Your lyrics, as well put together as

    they are, do manage to make me feel depressed, as it seems YOU feel. But a lot of really good work has come from people going through extreme emotional changes. I do hope you come out of it. I would like to read what you do then.
