Come Sundown (Ralph Emery's Country Legends Series Vol 1 Album Version) - Kris Kristofferson
I heard the front door closing softly
As I wakened from my sleep;
With the soft touch of her lips Lord
Like a whisper on my cheek;
And I cursed the sun for risin'
'Cause the worst Lord was yet to come;
'Cause this morning she's just leavin'
But come sundown she'll be gone
See the lipstick on the pillow
That I placed beneath her head;
And the soft sheets still feel warm Lord
Where she lay upon my bed;
And it hurts to know it's over
For the hurt Lord has just begun
'Cause this morning she's just leavin'
But come sundown she'll be gone
