I think the title about sums it up. It is a song about a heartbroken man.

country music soul music gospel music rebel music outlaw music

Gary Duvall

In the style of Hank Williams I and III. My music is a blend of old school three chord country with a hard dose of rhythm and blues.

I have been writing songs for twenty years. I was in a band long ago, but it didn't work out. Now I choose to do all the writing, arranging and recording on my own. When you hear my music, you here 100% me.

Lyrics

I MET A WOMAN AND SHE WAS SO SWEET
THAT I KNEW I HAD TO KNOW HER
THE PRETTIEST DAMN THING I THINK I’VE EVER SEEN

AND SO I WOO’ED HER FOR WHAT SEEMED A LIFETIME
‘TIL WE WERE FINALLY TOGETHER
THIS HEAVENLY VISION WAS MY EVERY DREAM

BUT TIME CARRIES THE SCARS FOREVER
AND SO SHE WALKED AWAY
LEAVING ME HEAR DROWNING IN A BARREN SEA

SO NOW I WALLOW IN SELF PITY
PRAY THE LORD’S GONNA TAKE ME AWAY
FREE ME FROM THIS ACHING MISERY

LORD I SWEAR I THOUGHT THAT WE WERE MEANT TO BE
BUT IN THIS WICKED WORLD AIN’T NOTHING QUITE THE WAY  IT SEEMS
YOU LEFT ME ALL ALONE IN SHEER DISDAIN
WITH A FIFTH OF WHISKEY TO WASH THE PAIN AWAY

OH WOMAN HOW COULD YOU LEAVE ME
I THOUGHT I GAVE YOU MY EVERYTHING
JUST WASN’T ENOUGH NOW SO IT SEEMS

WELL I LOVED YOU WITH ALL THAT I AM 
WASN’T ENOUGH TO KEEP YOU TRUE
JUST ENOUGH TO KEEP ME SAD AND BLUE

SO SHE’S GONE OFF TO A NEW LIFE
HOW I WISH I COULD WISH HER WELL
BUT I’M BUSY BURNING IN MY OWN HELL



AND WHEN I THINK ABOUT IT
 I PRAY TO GOD TO EASE THIS PAIN
FREE ME FROM MY ACHING MISERY

SO NOW I LIVE LIFE IN THE DARK
WALK AROUND WITH MY HEAD HELD LOW
AND WAIT FOR DARK WINTER FOREVER COLD

FORWITHOUT HER I AM NOTHING
ANOTHER VOID IN THE DESERT LAND
I SEE DEATH APPROACHING TO TAKE MY HAND

I SURRENDER ALL THAT I AM
I GIVE UP NOW TAKE ME AWAY
FOR IT HURTS TOO MUCH FOR ME TO STAY

SO NOW FERRY ME PAST THE RIVER
HERE’S THE SILVER TO GRANT MY WAY
TO THE LAND OF EVER MISERY
