She walked away, just like Jim Brown when he laid that football down and walked away because he could, all the way to Hollywood She walked away so sure and fast Into her future, into my past, just like I should have known she would It was just too true to be good She is history; let her go We are all in this together We are all in this alone She is history; let her go We are all in this together We are all in this alone An axle spins this world around It's rolling over rocky ground There's no shock-absorbers on that wheel, for us to ease the way it feels She really caught me off my guard Sometimes those bumps can hit you hard
There's no shock-absorbers on that wheel; well, at least this way we know it's real She is history; let her go We are all in this together We are all in this alone She is history; oh, let her go We are all in this together We are all in this alone Jim brown was something, that's a fact The all-time greatest running back But Jim knew something fools don't know He knew when it was time to go And she is history; let her go We are all in this together We are all in this alone She is history; oh, let her go We are all in this together We are all in this alone We are all in this together We are all in this alone
