Another day gone and I think of you 
Wonder where you're going wonder what you do 
Without me 
A telephone call from a friend I know 
Left me feeling bitter left me feeling
So unhappy
'Cos if you couldn't wait for 24 hours
What good would telegrams and flowers do

Well if it wasn't for the reason that I love you baby
I wouldn't have another thing to say to you

Might as well stay for a day or two
Find another friend and have a drink or two
To pass the time
Talking over troubles in a whiskey daze
A little drop of cognac helps a man to face
The lonely times
'Cause it's sad being home and I've given up trying
I've got no lyin' that I wanna do

Well if it wasn't for the reason that I love you baby
I wouldn't have another thing to say to you

Wish I could find a way
Make up the words to say
You cheated and you lied
You took away the little pride
I had inside

Well if it wasn't for the reason that I love you baby
I wouldn't have another thing to say to you

'Cos if you couldn't wait for 24 hours
What good would telegrams and flowers do

Well if it wasn't for the reason that I love you baby
I wouldn't have another thing to say to you

Well if it wasn't for the reason that I love you baby
I wouldn't have another thing to say to you

Well if it wasn't for the reason that I love you baby
I wouldn't have another thing to say to you.....
