I'm on a white line runnin' down the interstate
Tryin' to wipe away the rain that's runnin' down my face
Going any old where, 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
(Chorus)
Yeah I left a few on your old sweater
I watched them fall over lovesick letters
And I cried a river
Cried a mile wide one
I even cried some crocodile ones
From out here you can't hear me callin'
You won't see me when I start crawlin'
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 it ain't goin' back
So I ain't stopped since I stopped for gas
A hundred miles ago, right now I'm caught
Somewhere between gone and gone for good
And these tears will dry
But there've been times I wondered if they would
(Chorus)
Yeah I left a few on your old sweater
I watched them fall over lovesick letters
And I cried a river
Cried a mile wide one
I even cried some crocodile ones
From out here you can't hear me callin'
You won't see me when I start crawlin'
Cause this time
Baby, the next time that I do
I'll be a far cry from you
Yea From out here you can't hear me callin'
You won't see me when I start crawlin'
Cause this time
Baby, the next time that I do
I'll be a far cry from you
