| I left the west coast, watched the palm trees
|
| Wave goodbye, it was a hard drive
|
| Had to say goodbye to you
|
| I stopped for some Coca-cola and some corn nuts too
|
| I thought about turning back, I already missed you
|
| If you need me, burn it up, bend the rules, leave right away
|
| If you need me, take a four-lane headed my way
|
| Take a bus, take a plane, take a car, take a train
|
| Take a bike, hitch a ride, you decide
|
| If you need me, you know where I’ll be, yeah
|
| In Tennessee
|
| Going through my boxes found a photograph,
|
| Where you were sitting on a mule in Meixo, picture perfect point of view
|
| And then a post card dropped from a book you gave me On my birthday, and it hit me baby
|
| If you need me, burn it up, bend the rules, leave right away
|
| If you need me, take a four-lane headed my way
|
| Take a bus, take a plane, take a car, take a train
|
| Take a bike, hitch a ride, you decide
|
| If you need me, leave la, we’ll take it day by day
|
| All alone, here I am, by the phone, understand
|
| It’s not too late, what are you waiting for
|
| If you need me, you know where I’ll be, yeah
|
| In Tennessee
|
| It’s a Sunday morning, I awake, just another lonely day
|
| I lie in bed and wonder how long it this gonna take
|
| Then I think so myself, will I ever get a break
|
| Or did I make a big mistake?
|
| Well, I light the fire, I’ll draw the bubble bath, hey, you do the math
|
| It’s just me, and I’m without you, what else could I do?
|
| Repeat first chorus |
