(rodney crowell, dwight yoakam) I used to think love was The soft rope meant to tie me down And all that could ever own me Was a guitar and another town Ten years can disappear real fast When every morning just leaves somewhere else behind But i've been thinking about leaving Long enough to change my mind Lyin' here beside you I can feel it start to pull me away The thought i'll have again tomorrow That just came back from yesterday But your embrace makes any reason For those memories hard to find And i've been thinking about leaving Long enough to change my mind Sometimes i miss the warm, bright lights Sometimes i miss the crowds Sometimes i miss the women I wrapped each song around Sometimes i miss that world out there So empty hard and unkind But i've been thinking about leaving Long enough to change my mind Sometimes i miss the warm, bright lights Sometimes i miss the noise Sometimes i miss the fading sounds Of every cheering voice Sometimes i miss that world out there So empty hard and unkind But i've been thinking about leaving Long enough to change my mind I've been thinking about leaving Long enough to change my mind
