I Couldn´t Believe It Was True - Eddy Arnold

I COULDN’T BELIEVE IT WAS TRUE

(Eddy Arnold — Wally Fowler)

Last night I come home and I knocked on my door

I called to my love as I oft had before

I knocked and I knocked but no answer it came

No kisses to greet me no voice called my name

I couldn’t believe it was true oh Lord I couldn’t believe it was true

My eyes filled with tears I must have aged ten years

I couldn’t believe it was true

I let myself in and I walk to our bed

I found a note there and the message it read

The truth like a bolt from the blue in the dawn

My sweetheart had left me my darling had gone

I couldn’t believe it was true oh Lord…

The shock was so great I am quivering yet

I tried to forgive but I cannot forget

My heartbreaking loss is another man’s gain

Her happiness always I hope will remain

I couldn’t believe it was true oh Lord…
