I'm on a white line runnin' down the interstate.
|
Tryin' to wipe away the rain that's runnin' down my face.
|
Goin' any old ware, any old place, just some place else.
|
By now you know, that I'm not there, and if you don't know why.
|
Well, can't you see the tears it took for me to say good-bye.
|
|
Yeah, I left a few on your old sweater.
|
I watched them fall on a love sick letters
|
and I cried a river, cried a mile wide one
|
I'd even cried some crocodile ones.
|
But from out here you can't hear me callin'.
|
and you won't see me when I start fallin',
|
Cause this time, baby the next time, that I do,
|
I'll be a far cry from you.
|
|
In a moment of truth, it's a matter of fact.
|
There's only one way to go, and that ain't goin' back.
|
So I ain't stopped since I stopped for gas, a hundred miles ago.
|
And right now I'm caught somewhere between gone and gone for good.
|
And these tears will dry, but there have been times I wondered if they would.
|
|
