Sudden Stop Lyrics By Percy Sledge

    walkin’ out
    didn’t talk it out
    now she’s gone so you can’t mark it out
    i’m all alone and i must do without
    all the love that i can’t live without

    played along
    did her wrong
    and i don’t blame the girl for being gone
    i was cheating on her all along
    i can’t really see her stayin’ on

    when a man is being loved
    he takes it for granted
    he can’t see himself fallin’
    he thinks he’s on top
    oh but it’s not the fall
    that hurts him at all
    it’s the sudden stop

    suddenly
    she stopped loving me
    found me running ’round and set me free
    now my misery is my company
    and i’m missing her touch constantly

    walkin’ out
    oh she’s walking out
    didn’t talk it out
    now she’s gone so we can’t
    don’t wanna talk it out
    now she’s gone so you can mark it out
    all the love that i can’t live without
    walkin’ out
    oh she’s walkin’ out
    walkin’ out
    now she’s gone so you can mark it out
