Floor board is filled with baby toys
and empty coke bottles and coffee cups
Driving through the rain with no radio
try not to wake her up
Cell phone says low battery
God what if I break down
I'm just looking for an exit with lots of light
in a safe little interstate town
Just a cheap hotel
with a single bed
and cable TV
A (repeat Intro)
Someday when she?s old enough
she's going to start asking questions about him
some kid at school brings his dad for show and tell
gets her little mind wondering
where?s my daddy do I have one
does he not love me like you do
Maybe I'll find someone to love the both of us now
tell her when she's old enough to know the truth
(CHORUS 2)
Will it break her heart
will she understand
that I had to leave
That's what was best for me and Emily
(BRIDGE)
The house was never clean enough
his dinner never warm enough
Nothing I did was ever good enough to make him happy
So I guess he gave me what he thought I deserved
but it would kill me if he ever raise his hand to her
(repeat Intro)
Big rigs are throwing rain on my windshield now
Seems like they're laughing at me
Maybe the storm is letting up
and the morning is breaking free
(CHORUS 3)
It?s a brand new day
It's as second chance
yesterday is just a memory
For Me and Emily
Floor board is filled with baby toys
and empty coke bottles and coffee cups
At least there?s one good thing that he gave me
and she's starting to wake up
