I'm going away to stay awhile 
Just to ease my worried mind 
You never cared for me my love 
So I'm leaving you behind. 

It's been this way so long my dear 
Why can't you understand 
Your selfish heart broke up our home 
Just for another man. 

I tried to live my life alone 
All through these lonely years 
I keep your picture here with me 
Just to dry these bitter tears...
