" Where Did I Go Wrong "

" Where Did I Go Wrong "

(Lyrics By Gerald Logan)

( Verse 1 )

I was just a young man, chasing dreams down a two lane road

Thought love would wait for me, while my restless spirit roamed

She begged me to slow down, said “home’s where you belong”

But I turned my back on her pleas now I wonder where I went wrong

( Chorus )

Where did I go wrong, Lord, tell me tonight

Was it the whiskey, the cards, or the endless fights?

I lost the best thing I ever had, now I’m living all alone

with my memories, asking where did I go wrong

( Verse 2 )

The house feels colder, since she walked out that door

Her picture on the mantle don’t smile at me no more

I see her with the children, in dreams that don’t last long

I wake to empty silence… and that same old question strong

( Chorus )

Where did I go wrong, Lord, tell me tonight

Was it the gambling, the lies, or my foolish pride?

I let her slip through my hands, and the nights are twice as long

I’m haunted by the echoes where did I go wrong

( Bridge )

I should’ve held her closer, when the storms rolled in

I should’ve told her “I love you,” again and again

Now it’s too late for sorry, too late to make it right

I’m left with only memories in the dark of night

( Final Chorus )

Where did I go wrong, Lord, tell me tonight

Was it the anger, the silence, that cut her deep inside?

She was my forever, but forever’s come and gone

Now I’m just a broken man asking where did I go wrong

( Outro )

Yeah, I’m just a broken man whisperin’ where did I go wrong…
