There Goes My Everything

Tammy Wynette

I hear footsteps slowly walking,
As they gently walk across a lonely floor.
And a voice that's softly saying:
"Darling this will be goodbye forever more."

There goes my reason for living,
There goes the one of my dreams.
There goes my only possesion,
There goes my everything.

* * * * *

As my memory turns back the pages,
I can see the happy years we had before.
And the love that kept this cold heart beating,
Has been shattered by the closing of a door.

There goes my reason for living,
There goes the one of my dreams.
There goes my only possesion,
There goes my everything.
