Merle Haggard — I Die Ten Thousand Times a Day

[Verse] I come home and I sit down by the door I just sit and dream my lonely life away I just can't stand the thought that I won't see you anymore I guess I die ten thousand times a day Without soul, a life comes to its end I ceased to live the night you went away If you walk through that door, then I'll start to live again I guess I die ten thousand times a day I pick up each thing you used to touch I call to mind each tender word you'd say If I've hurt you, it's just because I love you much too much I guess I die ten thousand times a day
