lyrics

the last thing
she told me
was "hold me,
don't let go of me"
it's been long since that day
and i can't say
i've felt that way
for a long time
it's been a long line
of cheap wine
and short stays
on hard floors
out back doors
blinded by sun rays

it ain't the pain that makes you weep
ain't the night that makes you sleep
when you are runnin for your life
leave behind a child and a wife

she wrote me
a letter
and told me
don't forget her
that's been
ten years
twelve states
and near escapes
i put on
my shoes
and walked through
these highway blues
only to get nowhere
i'm lonely without her

ain't the pain that makes you weep
ain't the night that makes you sleep
when you are running for your life
leave behind a child and a wife
