I had to leave my life in Dallas That town will always be you
And every crowd on every corner and every face I'd see you
So with nothing more than a tank of gas.
(E)
And I guess that's how I got where I am
Going anywhere as fast as I can
I'm a little past Little Rock further down the line
Too soon to know what's up a head to late to change my mind
I've gotta keep my heart out of this and both hands on the wheel
I'm learning more with every mile just how leaving feels
It's a lonely stretch of black top out into the blue
Don't know where I'll go or what I'll do
I'm a little past Little Rock but a long way from over you
These headlights on the highway disappear into the dark
And if I could have it my way I'd go back to where you are
Oh but I can't turn this thing around
(E)
Is going to get me off this road I'm on
I'm still a far cry from gone
I'm a little past Little Rock further down the line
Too soon to know what's up a head to late to change my mind
I've gotta keep my heart out of this and both hands on the wheel
I'm learning more with every mile just how leaving feels
It's a lonely stretch of black top out into the blue
Don't know where I'll go or what I'll do
I'm a little past Little Rock but a long way from over you
I'm a little past Little Rock but a long way from over you.
