There I was at the bus stop beggin’ you just to stay Can we this out, baby we can work this out A dust trail a Greyhound headed for the West Coast As I watch you leave, it's gettin' hard to breathe No this ain’t how it was suppose to be If you’re out chasin’ all your dreams Tell me does that leave me
Chorus What about the plans that you left behind The little white house by the railway The one we picked out We even put the payment down What about the promise that you made To stay with me till your dying day you’d never go away Are they just things people say Are they just things baby
The preacher stopped by the house last Tuesday Asked if I was fine We sat and talked a while He tried make me smile But it’s so hard to show my face 'round lately In this small town I guess they heard the news me and you It’s 3 AM and I can’t sleep all I wonder where you are tonight and do I ever cross your mind
Repeat Chorus
Well my momma won’t stop crying She wonders went wrong Could I have loved a little deeper Or did I hold on too strong
