won't be long
|
| you should have seen those cars lined up and down that road |
| lord i can't remember when i've ever seen a night so cold |
| and the looks on their faces while they were standing in the ditch |
| just trying to get a glimpse of someone who was hit |
| we'd run those cars every friday night on that road just south of town |
| flashlight was the signal and we'd push the pedal down |
| engines were screaming, you could see our lights up in the trees |
| now i can hear them asking if there's anything that i can see |
| chorus: and i should have seen it coming, headin' straight down my lane |
| lord i know, it won't be long for me |
| i can't be sure if i saw the flashin' light |
| it's all just a blur since the last time that i saw you |
| and if i was drinkin', well i'm sure i had a few |
| now i wonder if i'm the one that they say is through |
| chorus |
| so if i'm gone, you carry on |
| and if i'm still around please get me out of here |
| please be with me, please understand |
| i wish i could have shown you all the things i wished i'd said |
| chorus: last line 3 times |
