Rust & Rails Rambler

I left my pride on the barstool by the door

Said I was fine,

then I asked for one more

Your name was playing on the jukebox again Like a heartbreak song

that never wants to end

And I swear I’m done,

I’m finally movin’ on Then the night rolls in and I’m right

back where I’m from My boots keep time with a losing kind

of beat And every road I take turns into your street

If you’re gonna leave,

leave the light on Let it burn like a promise till the

break of dawn I’ll be right here,

heart in my hands Tryin’ to learn how to let go,

but I can’t If you’re gone,

then go all the way

Don’t keep me hangin’ on a maybe

Your picture’s bent in my wallet like a sigh

I tell my buddies I’m done with your goodbye

But every Friday finds me back in this place

Chasin’ your ghost in a cloud of cheap cologne

I laugh too loud just to cover up the ache

If you’re gonna leave,

leave the light on Let it burn like a promise till the

break of dawn I’ll be right here,

heart in my hands Tryin’ to learn how to let go,

but I can’t If you’re gone,

then go all the way

Don’t keep me hangin’ on a maybe

So I’ll close my tab,

and I’ll close my eyes Count the miles of hurt between your

life and mine

If love’s a game,

I’ve been playin’ it wrong

But I’m still here when they’re playin’ our song

If you’re gonna leave,

leave the light on Let it burn like a promise till the

break of dawn I’ll be right here,

heart in my hands Tryin’ to learn how to let go,

but I can’t If you’re gone,

then go all the way

Don’t keep me hangin’ on a maybe
