"Just At Dawn" lyrics

"Just At Dawn"

The heaven that we shared so long
Suddenly became a living hell
And the things that we felt yesterday
Today don't feel so well

Strong roots of resentment out grew seeds of love
I thought were so well planted
He took you from me while I stood by
And foolishly took you for granted

He must have said and done the little things
You wanted me to say and do
But I always put simple minded
Selfish heart of me ahead of you

You know it never crossed my mind
At dawn I found myself alone
Until I woke this morning just at dawn
It dawned on me that you were gone

At dawn I found myself alone
Not feeling well
I went to sleep last night in heaven
And woke up in hell

You know it never crossed my mind
That someday I might find myself alone
Until I woke this morning just at dawn
It dawned on me that you were gone
