I`d Rather Be Alone — текст песни (Flatt and Scruggs)

I`d rather be alone and have you dream of me only
Than have you say you`re sorry that we are apart
I`d rather be alone and have you dream of me only
Than to be in your arms but never in your heart

Well I`ve just received your letter you asked me to come home
You say you`re sorry that you went away
This is an old old story and I`ve heard it all before
So darlin` this is all that I can say

I tried so hard my darlin` to make you love me then
`Cause you would always leave me here alone
And although I could forgive you things would be the same
Nothing could ever change your heart of stone
