PEGGY'S GONE 2007 - DON'T
James Michael Taylor
PEGGY’S GONE Key of F
Peggy’s gone. After 29 years.
Three grown children. What am I doing here.
Why am I still alive? What am I supposed to do?
I ask myself. I’m asking you.
Peggy’s gone. She says it’s for good
I say, “That’s bad,” but then I would
Why am I still alive? What am I supposed to do?
I ask myself. I’m asking you
There’s a reason to live. I suspect that it’s true
But can I trust someone. Someone like you
Peggy’s gone. Til death do us part.
Will it be me of will it just be my heart?
A promise that’s kept. A promise betrayed
Is it just as it seems or is it justice delayed?
Am I some old dog you drop off at the pound
If you’re gonna leave me you need to have me put down
Peggy’s gone. She says it’s for good
I say, “That’s bad,” but t hen I would

Just strolling thru old JMT albums, stopped at DON'T... played PEGGY'S GONE... Gawd! My dear old friend... I'd forgotten! Such pain poured out... into such a beautiful song! It still makes me cry... I cry now. (JQM)
