Dia mengatakan bahwa pikirannya dibuat,
As she put on her make-up,
Saat dia memakai make-upnya,
Said there was nothing here for her,
Mengatakan tidak ada apa-apa di sini untuknya,
She just packed up her suitcase,
Dia hanya mengemasi kopernya,
And she walked right out that fromt gate,
Dan dia berjalan keluar dari gerbang itu,
With her taxi waiting at the curb,
Dengan taksi yang menunggu di tepi jalan,
Too many empyty nights alone,
Terlalu banyak malam empiris saja,
Too late I realize,
Terlambat aku sadar,
It’s a cryin shame it took her tears,
Sayang sayang tangisnya butuh air matanya,
To open up my eyes,
Untuk membuka mataku,
I should have seen, Abeline,
Seharusnya aku lihat, Abeline,
On her mind,
Dalam pikirannya,
Her leavin me, and Tennessee,
Dia mencariku, dan Tennessee,
Far behind,
Jauh di belakang,
Should have seen her growin’ lonely,
Seharusnya dia melihatnya tumbuh sepi,
All alone there waitin’ on me,
Semua sendirian di sana menungguku,
All the warnin’ sings were there,
Semua peringatan ada di sana,
But I was blind,
Tapi aku buta,
I should have seen Abeline,
Seharusnya aku melihat Abeline,
On her mind,
Dalam pikirannya,
Last night the band played Dallas,
Tadi malam band ini bermain di Dallas,
I sang the song I wrote about us,
Saya menyanyikan lagu yang saya tulis tentang kami,
And you could feel the sadness in the air,
Dan Anda bisa merasakan kesedihan di udara,
After the show was over,
Setelah pertunjukan selesai,
I a hand lay on my shoulder,
Tanganku terbaring di bahuku,
Turned around and found her standin’ there,
Berbalik dan menemukannya berdiri di sana,
She said after all these years,
Dia mengatakan setelah sekian tahun,
It’s nice to know your dreams came true,
Senang mengetahui mimpimu menjadi kenyataan,
And the wedding band there on her hand,
Dan cincin kawin ada di tangannya,
Told me that hers had to,
Kukatakan bahwa miliknya harus,
I should have seen, Abeline,
Seharusnya aku lihat, Abeline,
On her mind,
Dalam pikirannya,
Her leavin me, and Tennessee,
Dia mencariku, dan Tennessee,
Far behind,
Jauh di belakang,
Should have seen her growin’ lonely,
Seharusnya dia melihatnya tumbuh sepi,
All alone there waitin’ on me,
Semua sendirian di sana menungguku,
All the warnin’ sings were there,
Semua peringatan ada di sana,
But I was blind,
Tapi aku buta,
I should have seen Abeline,
Seharusnya aku melihat Abeline,
On her mind,
Dalam pikirannya,
I should have seen Abeline,
Seharusnya aku melihat Abeline,
On her mind,
Dalam pikirannya,
Abeline,
Abeline,
On her mind
Di pikirannya
