Little Past Little Rock: The Story

I had to leave my life in Dallas That town will always be you In every crowd on every corner, in every face I'd see you So with nothing more than a tank of gas I drove away without looking back And I guess that's how I got where I am Going anywhere as fast as I can

And I'm a little past Little Rock Further down the line Too soon to know what's up ahead Too late to change my mind I gotta keep my heart outta this and both hands on the wheel I'm learnin' more with every mile just how leavin' feels It's a lonely stretch of blacktop, out into the blue Don't know where I'll go or what I'll do I'm a little past Little Rock, but a long way from over you

These headlights on the highway disappear into the dark And if I could have it my way I'd go back to where you are Oh but I can't turn this thing around And nothin' short to breakin' down is gonna get me off this road I'm on Oh and I'm still a far cry from gone

And I'm a little past Little Rock Further down the line Too soon to know what's up ahead Too late to change my mind I gotta keep my heart outta this and both hands on the wheel I'm learnin' more with every mile just how leavin' feels It's a lonely stretch of blacktop, out into the blue Don't know where I'll go or what I'll do I'm a little past Little Rock, but a long way from over you

I'm a little past Little Rock, but a long way from over you
