I got out of bed this morning smoked a cigarette or two
Then I read the morning paper just the way I always do
Saw a picture of you darling and I thought of yesterday
And I know I've never loved you more than I'm loving you today

Heard my wife say come to breakfast and I quickly turned away
She said darling what's the matter aren't you feeling well today
Oh it's just an old discomfort and it soon will go away
But I know it's never hurt me more than it's hurtin' me today

What a shame to waste a woman like the one I married to
But I know I could love her if it's only worth for you
I keep praying old mem'ries soon will fade away
But I know I've never loved you more than I'm loving you today
