I'm on a white line runnin' down the interstate
Tryin' to wipe away the rain that's runnin' down my face
Goin' any old ware, any old place, just some place else
By now you know, that I'm not there, and if you don't know why
Well, can't you see the tears it took for me to say good-bye

Yeah, I left a few on your old sweater
I watched them fall on a love sick letters
and I cried a river, cried a mile wide one
I'd even cried some crocodile ones
But from out here you can't hear me callin'
and you won't see me when I start fallin',
Cause this time, baby the next time, that I do,
I'll be a far cry from you

In a moment of truth, it's a matter of fact
There's only one way to go, and that ain't goin' back
So I ain't stopped since I stopped for gas, a hundred miles ago
And right now I'm caught somewhere between gone and gone for good
And these tears will dry, but there have been times I wondered if they would

Yeah, I left a few on your old sweater
I watched them fall on a love sick letters
and I cried a river, cried a mile wide one
I'd even cried some crocodile ones
But from out here you can't hear me callin'
And you won't see me when I start fallin',
Cause this time, baby the next time, that I do,
I'll be a far cry from you

Yeah, from out here you can't hear me callin'
And you won't see me when I start fallin',
Cause this time, baby the next time, that I do,
I'll be a far cry from you
