There Goes My Everything

(Dallas Frazier)



(How I miss the little sounds that meant she was near

The snap of her purse being closed the flick of a cigarette lighter

The soft melody of her breathing after she went to sleep

All of these things had become part of me

There goes my ev'rything.)



There goes my ev'rything.



I hear footsteps slowly walkin'

As they gently walk across a lonely floor

And a voice that's softly sayin'

Darlin' this will be goodbye forever more.



There goes my reason for living

There goes the one of my dreams

There goes my only possesion

There goes my ev'rything.



--- Instrumental ---



As my mem'ry turns back the pages

I can see the happy years we had before

Now the love that kept this old heart beating

Has been shattered by the closing of a door.



There goes my reason for living

There goes the one of my dreams

There goes my only possesion

There goes my ev'rything...
