Got a ticket in my hand and one foot out the door. It's sad to see how far apart we've come. If we could just forget takin' sides in our little wars. And remember back to where we started from.
Sometimes I look at you and my heart hurts. I guess when love's this strong that's how it can be. When my time should come to leave this world. I hope the good Lord takes me in my sleep.
Wait till you're sure they're sound asleep. Then say a little prayer, those stairs don't creak. Where the river runs deep and the wildflowers bloom. We'll do some things your daddy wouldn't want us to do.
