I Looked Away - Michael Nesmith, The First National Band

She took my hand

Tried to make me understand

That she would always be there

I looked away

Then she ran away from me today

I’m such a lone, lonely man

Came as a surprise to me

She left me here in misery

Seemed like only yesterday

She made a vow

She’d never go away

She took my hand

Tried to make me understand

That she would always be there

I looked away

Then she ran away from me today

I’m such a lone, lonely man

Seemed to me like such a sin

For me to love another man’s woman

But I guess I’ll keep on sinnin'

Lovin' you 'til my very last day

I looked away

Then she ran away from me today

I’m such a lone, lonely man
