Dottie West - Every Word I Write lyrics

EVERY WORD I WRITE

WRITERS GEORGE RICHEY, ROGER BOWLING, JAN CRUTCHFIELD

I've been sitting here alone all night

Thinking ‘bout things that I'm gonna write

When you read this goodbye note you'll know I've had enough

But it should come at no surprise to you

Knowing you treat me the way you do

You've made lovin' too hard and living too rough

I just need a good place to start

To say what I really feel in my heart

And what I'm gonna write to you is long overdue

And don't expect me to change my mind

Or try to read something between the lines

Make no mistake about it baby, we're through

But every word I write comes out I love you

I just want to say it's over no matter how I try

Every word I write comes out I love you

Guess I've loved you much too long to say goodbye
