I've almost read the ink right off the paper
I've read your letter through so many times
With every word I ache and ache to touch you
It's enough to make a woman lose her mind

I wish the miles for all that stood between us
For I'd be on the first train I could find
But you love someone else the way I love you
It's enough to make a woman lose her mind

How did my emotions get so single
How did my poor heart become so blind
For I'm in love with one I'll never marry
It's enough to make a woman lose her mind

[ guitar ]

The world for me has turned into a prison
And I've become a prisoner servin' time
My sentence is a long long life without you
It's enough to make a woman lose her mind
It's enough to make a woman lose her mind
