Alan Jackson - When I Saw You Leaving(for Nicey)



Ain't funny how one minute
Your whole life's lookin' fine
And a short few words later
It all just comes untied

You can't believe you're lookin'
What was always someone else
Now it's starin' right there at you
Yesterday you couldn't tell

So shocked and disillusioned
Helpless and confused
Now knowin' how or what to say
Not acceptin' that it's true

You can't help but see the worst to come
A thousand different ways
The same time tryin' to hold a strong
And optimistic gaze

When I saw you leaving
When I saw you leaving
When I saw you leaving
In my mind

Then the anger starts to surface
Lookin' up, askin' why
But you realize he probably wants
The bestest same as I

Days just go by quickly
Nights just never end
As time gets so more precious
Every sunrise an old friend

Tryin' to be a post to lean on
A part you learn it's hard to play
Askin' God to let you take her place
Or just take it all away

Hope you wake up in the morning
And this all just been a dream
You'd never take for granted
Every second that you breathe

When I saw you leaving
When I saw you leaving
When I saw you leaving
In my mind

And the seconds turn to minutes
The minutes wouldn't last
And the hours, days and weeks and months
Seem endless and too fast

And the blessings poured from Heaven
Like the rain on that first spring
Since that moment I first thought
You might not always be with me

When I saw you leaving
When I saw you leaving
When I saw you leaving
In my mind
In my mind

Ain't funny how one minute
Your whole life's lookin' fine
And a short few words later
It all just comes untied
