That was a tough goodbye. And what tore me down was watchin' her tryin' not to cry. She asked me to stay and for a minute I thought I might. Yeah, that was a tough goodbye.
Well I never once. Backed down from a punch. Well I'd take it square on the chin. Well I found out fast. A bully's just that. You've got to stand up to him.
We walk, we fly, we stay sober, we get high. We sleep all day, stay up all night. Right a wrong, and live our lives. . We work, we play, we leave, and we stay.
Today, he told her that he loved her. Put a ring around her finger. And promised her forever, together.. . Today, she smiled for all the pictures. And he was right there with her.
[Chorus]. Things are tough all over. And I'm losin' badly. I wish you were still here. And I say it sadly. But if you wanna come back. Cause you need a shoulder.
Verse 1:. So you sailed away. Into a grey sky morning. Now I'm here to stay. Love can be so boring. . Nothing's quite the same now. I just say your name now.
Smoky old bars, bright neon lights. Good ole boys and girls of the night. An ice cold beer and a good shot of brandy. I've always had a sweet tooth. For the devil's candy.
No rush though I need your touch. I won't rush your heart. Until you feel on solid ground. Until your strength is found, girl. . I'll fill those canyons in your soul.
Ooh ooh ooh ooh sorry, ooh ooh ooh ooh sorry. . Well I came home from work in the middle of the day. Two hours early, but a little too late. She was coming down the stairs, looking mighty grand.
Well I'm gonna show her. That I can forget her. That little girls lovin'. Meant nothin' to me. . If you go lookin' at the bottom. of a whiskey bottle, that's where I'll be.
She's a warm summer breeze with bleach blonde hair. Like a fine red wine she can take you there. She's a walk in the sand at sunset. She's the top pulled down on the 405.
Well I won't make you tell me. What I've come to understand. You're a certain kind of woman and. I'm a different kind of man. I've tried to make you love me.
Well this town has closed down way too early. And there's nothin' to do. So I'm drivin' around in circles and I'm thinkin' about you. Today I heard you got a new last name,.
By now I really should be over you. But I might as well just give up tryin`. You've got what's missin` deep inside me. And I want it back, girl you know it's mine.
This life I chose. It's always been hard. Lots of tattoos and scars and broken hearts. And a woman's love. Even hard for me to find. Keeping one's tough when you're gone all the time.
Well, I can see you're dancing every dance with her. And it seems to me you're dancing much too close to her. When you're sitting at our table you're sitting next to her.
As I walk along,. I wonder what went wrong,. With our love,. A love so rarin' strong.. . And as I walk along,. I think of the things we've done. Together, while our hearts were young..
Floatin' away like a bottle in the water. Sun down here just feels a little hotter. Burnin' away today 'cause I ain't got her no more, no more. Somethin' kinda dark about stone white beaches.
I saw you walking down the street last night,. I saw him walking by your side,. I saw the way he stopped and held you tight,. I saw the look in your eyes,.
I remember the smile on her face. When I put you on her finger. I felt the love in her sweet embrace. And all the happiness you brought her. . I still see it all in my mind.
