I woke up this morning to a world that's all wrong
And suddenly remembered you're gone
I tried hard to forget you but there's no way I find
My heart won't listen to my mind

I cried a river of teardrops got a heart full of ache
I never learned to give all I knew was take
So I took the love you gave me then left you behind
My heart won't listen to my mind
[ steel - fiddle ]
So I'll hold to your mem'ry that's all I can do
And relive each moment spent with you
And then my darkest hour there's no measure of time
My heart won't listen to my mind
I cried a river...
