I guess you think you broke my heart
But I don't mind that we're apart
As sure as there's another dawn
You can bet that I will be a long time gone

For every time you lied to me
I told myself that this can't be
I know I was completely wrong
You can bet that I will be a long time gone

[ dobro ]
My mind's been on you day and night
But now I finally saw the light
I'm gonna tell you now so long
You can bet that I will be a long time gone

Today I saw a mourning dove
And he was crying for his love
I'm sorry that he's all alone
But for me I'm glad I'll be a long time gone
