I Know You're Going Away

Connie Smith · Just For What I Am [1974]

(Dallas Frazier)



I know the heartaches are coming 'cause I know you're going away

There's no gladness in your voice when you say darling

There's no sweetness in your lips when they meet mine

There's no feeling in your arms when they're around me

How much plainer could you say it's goodbye time.



I know the heartaches are coming

I know the skies will turn grey

I know the the tears will start falling

'Cause I know you're going away.



--- Instrumental ---



Hearts that were friends now are strangers

Eyes that could see now are blind

Only tomorrows of sorrow

From the day that you leave me behind.



I know the heartaches are coming

I know the skies will turn grey

I know the the tears will start falling

'Cause I know you're going away...
