THE MARCUS KING BAND
"I Won't Be Here"

Lord, my tears have dried up
'Cause I no longer feel that pain
I was standing by others
I felt alone in the pouring rain

When you did the things you've done
Changed my perspective on love
Hurt me so damn bad
Now, there's someone else that I'm dreamin' of

[Pre-Chorus:]
And you know I've got somebody else beside me
And her passion is much stronger
And she's bound to love me longer

[Chorus:]
I won't be here
If you ever change your mind
I won't be here
If you ever change your mind

I never spoke the words, "I love you"
But with you the words felt true
Felt the distance when I held you close, baby
Now, I'm holding someone new

You'll never admit to the hurt you brought me
Or accept the pain you've caused
So oblivious to it all, baby
Now, a new flame holds my heart

[Pre-Chorus:]
And you know I've got somebody else beside me
And her passion is much stronger
And she's bound to love me longer

[Chorus:]
I won't be here
If you ever change your mind
I won't be here
If you ever change your mind

[Outro:]
I won't be here
If you ever change your mind
I won't be here
