Off to my right a freight train engine's screamin' to my left I hear a baby cry. To my devided soul they just add more confusion as I walk out into the night.
From the cradle to the crossroads. From the crossroads to the grave. Choices we are given and choices we have made. I have so many questions I've tried the best I can.
If I left you, I wouldn't stay gone so long. If I left you, I'd worry how you got along. . But you left me alone here in my misery. That's not something I would do if I left you.
Well I took those vows to prove my love was strong. And you told me that our love was carved in stone. But that stone was crushed today and the pieces blown away.
Oh I must have left some stones unturned or could be quite a few. There's a lot I've overlooked and never knew. There's some things you learn while getting burned.
I like to keep myself in pain. Even when the sun is high. Shining on the olive trees. Theres still a shadow in my eyes. . And that shadow must be yours.
That innocent look in her green eyes. Sparkle when she starts to laugh. Memories of her start to fill up my mind. Like pieces of torn photographs. . Its all comin' back to me now.
My boss is the bosses son. And that makes for a real long day. And when that day is finally done. I'm facin' forty-thousand cars on the interstate. Feelin' lower than a well digger's shoes.
I been wired since I can't remember when. You seen me out, most every night with a dissipated grin. All my life I been labeled loob and lout. But now I think, I'm finally wearin' down.

Ohh it's choking me to death. I can hardly catch my breath. It happens when I think of you. And I think, it always will. . Every day that passes by. It's just one more way to die.
Now I ain't got the money buy you things to try and win your love. But I've got the kind of tender you been dreamin of. Ain't got the words honey silence's so sweet to talk you ain't you bein' mine.
Where there's a cloud, don't mean there's rain. Tears in my eyes, don't mean there's pain. Don't flatter yourself. I'm over you. . Things aren't always what they seem.
I'm no stranger to the rain, I'm a friend of thunder. Friend, is it any wonder lightning strikes me. I've fought with the devil, got down on his level.
Everywhere I turn, someone reminds me of you. I remember all the things that we used to do. I think I'm over you and then. I'm losin' you all over again.
I'm gonna hurt her on the radio. She's gonna hear me everywhere she goes. I'll get revenge the only way I know. I'm gonna hurt her on the radio. Take these pieces of this broken heart.
I know she thinks we're different. In the cold gray light of dawn. For somethings feel so right at night. And in the morning feels so wrong. . Last night I saw me in your eyes.
Tonight, I'm sad, my heart is weary. Wondering if I'm wrong or right. To dream about you though you left me. I wonder where you are tonight.. . CHORUS.
If you drive around. Back in our old hometown. I wonder, do you think of me?. . When you drive by a school. Do you remember two fools?. I wonder, do you think of me?.
I can't stand to see a good man go to waste. One who never combs his hair or shaves his face. A man who leans on wine over love that's told a lie. Oh, it tears me up to see a grown man cry.
