Lyrics George Jones

George Jones

Come Sundown

I heard the front door closin' softly

As I waken from my sleep

With the last touch of her lips, Lord

Like a whisper on my cheek.

And I curse the sun for risin'

For the worse Lord, is yet to come

'Cause this mornin' she's just leavin'

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 hurt to know it's over

For the hurt Lord, has just begun

'Cause this mornin' she's just leavin'

But come sundown she'll be gone...
