verse 2  
	This morning I woke up alone    found a note standing by the phone  
	saying "maybe, maybe I'll be back someday"

	you walked in, I didn't know just what I should do  
	So, I sat back down, had a beer and felt sorry for myself

	last night I tried to leave  
	cried so much I could not beleive
