You Left the Water Running Songtext
von Dan Penn

You left the water runnin′
When you left me behind
You left all the water runnin'
Runnin′ from these eyes of mine

You turned off the light of love
You left with another guy
You turned off all your love for me
But you forgot to turn off the cry
You forgot to turn off the cry

You pulled the shade way down low
Disconnected your telephone
But baby, these tears are runnin' from my eyes
I can't turn them off and on

′Cause baby, you left the water runnin′
When you left me behind
Oh, you left all that water runnin'
Runnin′ from these eyes of mine

You know


You locked the door and left my heart outside
Then you threw the key away
You'll regret, baby, you′ll be upset
When you get your water bill to pay
When you get that water bill to pay

'Cause honey, you left the water runnin′
When you left me behind
Let me tell you, that you left all the water runnin'
Runnin' from these eyes of mine
Lordy, runnin′ from these eyes of mine

Let me tell you, you left the water runnin′
When you left me behind
Oh my, you left all the water runnin'
Runnin′ from these eyes of mine

Oh honey, you left me (The water runnin')
You left me (When you left me behind) you left me
Oh honey, you left all that water runnin′
Runnin' from these eyes of mine

Come home and turn it off, baby (You left the water runnin′)
(When you left me behind) This kind of pain, oh yeah
You left all your good man runnin'
Runnin' from these eyes that cry, yeah
