I know it's time to say goodbye
So I'll slam the door and make this gravel fly
Wipe away those teardrops in your eyes
You'll forget me come tomorrow's sunrise
I hope I'll make it back to you someday
But a promise made won't be kept
by the time we part ways
When I drive, baby, I'll be in a haze
I'll see you next to me in all those yesterdays
Maybe I'm the reason that
you go and never look back
Maybe you can't see it
but I saved you from the tracks
Of this run away freight train
with nothing to lose
Maybe I might have saved you
from my dark days blues
Sometimes, girl, I miss you in my life
It hits me when I'm lonely in the night
And I won't ever let 'em see me cry
The friends of mine that the whiskey occupies
When did life get so damn hard to stand?
Was it the change from a boy into a man?
Maybe I'm the reason that you go
and never look back
Maybe you can't see it
but I saved you from the tracks
Of this run away freight train
with nothing to lose
Maybe I might have saved you,
maybe I think I saved you
Baby, I think I saved you
from my dark days blues
