That's Why |
LyricsMe and this lonesome highway became fast friendsDriving away last night I confessed to what I did And how I'd live to regret it And how leaving still somehow seemed right. I road off like a coward while she lay there so softly The moonlight blessing her face. Someday I'll answer The questions that'll haunt me but today I'm just running away. I forgot how to laugh I forgot how to cry I forgot how to let her inside I forgot how to feel I forgot how to try And that's why I forgot to say goodbye. That's why I forgot to say goodbye. 4 cups of coffee at that roadside diner Should keep me speeding all day But my caffeine minds races It crashes and burns And I pull at a wayside and I pray! I forgot how to laugh I forgot how to cry I forgot how to let her inside I forgot how to feel I forgot how to try And that's why I forgot to say goodbye. That's why I forgot to say goodbye. So I'm making my way back to Crested Butte, Colorado The Elk Mountains are a fine place to hide The Cutthroats and the Rainbows up the Slate river valley Don't judge me or claim to care why. Oh why! I forgot how to laugh I forgot how to cry I forgot how to let her inside I forgot how to feel I forgot how to try And that's why I forgot to say goodbye. That's why! That's why! |
