I was into bein' out on my own. I could take love or leave it alone. That's how you get when you're hurt to the bone. One too many times. I had this heart of mine locked away.
When you left, I told myself. I wouldn't let you haunt my mind. I'd be strong, I'd carry on. And leave the past behind. I'd just forget we ever met. And find somebody new.
When you told me. That we were through. I thought it would be easy. Getting over you. Now I know that it's gonna take some time. 'Cause when I come home now.
I went down to the Grundy County Auction. Where I was Something I just had to have. My mind told me I should proceed with caution but my heart said go ahead and make a bid on that...
Did ya ever wake up in the mornin' nothing was a goin' right. Spent the whole night fussin' and a fightin' with your wife?. . Bills out in the mailbox you know that you can't pay.
Well I went down to the Grundy County auction. Where I saw somethin' I just had to have. My mind told me I should proceed with caution. But my heart said go ahead make a bid on that.

All week long I been workin' that nine to five. Dreamin' in color but livin' in black and white. Monday to Friday ain't nothing but shades of gray. But tonight I'm gonna party.
Sometimes a song can touch a nerve that takes me back to you. When I pick up my old guitar and I play your favorite tune. Every now and then, some little thing, I've buried comes bubblin' up.
