Signed Gladys

Pam Sawyer, Clay McMurray

[Verse 1]
My eyes are dark and wet
As the ink from my fountain pen
It's hard to write goodbye
Knowin' it means the end
I meant to tell you, boy
Face to face
But I simply lost my nerve
I looked at you
And couldn't say a word

[Pre-Chorus]
I guess I loved you too much
(I guess I loved you too much)
To share your love

[Chorus]
Signed Gladys (Signed Gladys)
Oh, yeah
Signed Gladys (Signed Gladys)
Oh, yeah
If you need her, too (If you need her, too)
Then I'm not enough for you

[Verse 2]
Somewhere I know
I must've failed
If I knew how or why
There wouldn't be goodbye, mmm
And this tear filled letter, boy
Would never reach the mail

[Pre-Chorus]
I guess I loved you too much
(I guess I loved you too much)
To share your love

[Chorus]
Signed Gladys (Signed Gladys)
Oh, yeah (Signed Gladys)

[Bridge]
I'm tried of the life I lead
It's a three way tragedy
It might be all right with her
But it just ain't enough for me
(Just ain't enough, just ain't enough for me)

[Pre-Chorus]
I guess I loved you too much
(I guess I loved you too much)
To share your love

[Chorus]
Signed Gladys (Signed Gladys)
Oh, yeah (Signed Gladys)
Signed Gladys (Signed Gladys)
Mmm, oh, yeah (Signed Gladys)

[Outro]
Though I'm writin' this letter
I'm gonna tear it up
Before I send it to you
And risk losin' your love
What's in this letter
You'll never read
Because I changed my mind
I'm gonna mail it to miss ...
