She said don't worry baby when she left me
You were alright on your own before I came along and made this happy home
And you can take that damned ol guitar, pack it up and hit the road
After all youre probably better off alone
So I grabbed that ol guitar and hit the highway
It doesnt take too long to pack When an empty seat holds everything you own
And I found comfort knowing with a moments notice I could roll
After all I'm probably better off alone
And the cold wind blows
Lightning fills the sky and the thunder rolls
Her memory surrounds me, carves me like a stone
Like raindrops on my weatherbeaten soul
I was just past Arizona when she called me
Her voice, it seemed to change as if it aged although it wasnt long ago
She said lately I've been thinking maybe you could come back home
I told her maybe I'm just better off alone
And the cold wind blows
Lightning fills the sky and the thunder rolls
Her memory surrounds me, carves me like a stone
Like raindrops on my weatherbeaten soul
Just like waves upon the cliffs along the ocean
Time goes by until the water changes rock to beaches made of sand
And this ol heart can take a beatin just like mother nature planned
I just hope it isnt more than I can stand
And the cold wind blows
Lightning fills the sky and the thunder rolls
Her memory surrounds me, carves me like a stone
Like raindrops on my weatherbeaten soul
Just like raindrops on my weatherbeaten soul
