lyrics

In the early morning rain
With a gun in my hand
I shot my woman down

And I knew It was wrong
But there was no turning back
So I packed my bags and fled her town

After a mile or so
The wrong way down a dead end road
They cornered me with nowhere left to go

So I got out of my car
And as they yelled for the gun
I took aim and shot down everyone

Then like a flash
I was hit by the hand of God
That threw me off my feet into the dirt

And as the night grew dim
Angels flew on dark wings
And I saw my body bathed in sin
I saw my body bathed in sin

And there I stood alone
And all I knew was gone
With every thought held only
By the lonely light of sin

Sometimes love lives in the face of hate
On different sides of the same spinning coin
Sometimes it lands face up in your hand
Sometimes it's face down in the dirt

Now in this room
I relive every scene
Played out in front of me like a dream
And I can’t talk
But what would I say
If I could find the words to speak anyway

In the early morning rain
With a gun in my hand
I shot my woman down
I shot my woman down
