There Goes My Last Reason for Living

Jimmy Dean · Jimmy Dean Is Here! [RCA Victor] [1967]

(Cal Miller)



There goes my last reason for living.



When you loved me I was richer than a king

Now you're gone and life is such an empty thing

The tears I tried so hard to hide won't bring you back to me

And there goes my last reason for living.



If pride hadn't come to rule the world you live in

And take away the meaning of forgivin'

You would have heard me say as you turned to walk away

There goes my last reason for living.



Now I know I was a fool to be untrue

All I want is just to make it up to you

But time's run out and I'm about to lose this someone new

And there goes my last reason for living.



If pride hadn't come to rule the world you live in

And take away the meaning of forgivin'

You would have heard me say as you turned to walk away

There goes my last reason for living.



You would have heard me say as you turned to walk away

There goes my last reason for living...
