The Guilt Was Gone

Guilt lay on my conscience
As I turned to hold her
Those second thoughts kept rolling through my mind
Then I felt the tingle
Of her fingers on my shoulder
Drawing me to touch her one more time

The guilt was gone, I had gone crazy
Could not think of my baby
Or how soon I would lose a happy home
The guilt was gone like my tomorrows
Now I live with the sorrow
Of knowing I was wrong all along
Though now it’s back where it belongs
The guilt was gone

Now the one I slipped around with
Has took up with some other...
Some other fool who’ll play her cheating game
And my true love has left me
Left me for another...
Another way of saying I’m to blame

The guilt was gone, I had gone crazy
Could not think of my baby
Or how soon I would lose a happy home
The guilt was gone like my tomorrows
Now I live with the sorrow
Of knowing I was wrong all along
Though now it’s back where it belongs
The guilt was gone

The guilt was gone, I had gone crazy
Could not think of my baby
Or how soon I would lose a happy home
The guilt was gone like my tomorrows
Now I live with the sorrow
Of knowing I was wrong all along
Though now it’s back where it belongs
The guilt was gone

Though now it’s back where it belongs
The guilt was gone
