Lyrics Ernest Tubb

Ernest Tubb

I Wonder Why You Said Goodbye

Your letter came this very day and it wiped all my dreams away

I've read it o'er a thousand times it's left me with a worried mind

I wonder why you said goodbye and did you mean to make me cry

I guess until the day I die that I will still be wondering why

I'd read the thought that we are through and that you found somebody new

I love you now I always will I'd rather die than say farewell

(I wonder why you said goodbye and did you mean to make me cry

I guess until the day I die that I will still be wondering why)

I hope and pray before my time that you'll come back and say you're mine

Bring back the love you took away and mend the heart you broke today

I wonder why you said goodbye...
