Adapted from Chris' upload at Blue Sky Home Page - Thank you! Well, I no longer can recall All the times you made me crawl All the times you made me hang my head and cry But still the teardrops fall And lord what's worst of all I just ain't got the nerve to say goodbye I'm waitin' for the day When I can hide my love away And stand up like a man so tall and free Then you'll be the one to say Oh darlin', can't you stay I don't know what I'd do if you should leave me Oh girl, I don't know why You always have to try To hurt me to make me feel ashamed Oh, but someday by and by You're gonna be the one to cry And walk the floor and sadly call my name I'm waitin' for the day When I can hide my love away And stand up like a man so tall and free Then you'll be the one to say Oh darlin', can't you stay I don't know what I'd do if you should leave me Oh, but it looks like until then I'll throw pride to the wind And try to make believe that I don't know That a day is comin' when You won't do me wrong again And I will be the one to turn and go I'm waitin' for the day When I can hide my love away And stand up like a man so tall and free Then you'll be the one to say Oh darlin', can't you stay I don't know what I'd do if you should leave me I don't know what I'd do if you should leave me
