Picking up her clothes from the bedroom floor She dressed in the dime light shinning from the hall Quietly she slipped into a moon lit night Leaving all her troubles behind He over looked the little things that means so much There was no sincerity left in his touch Anyway she tried to please he put her down He cannot criticize her if she ain't around -Chorus- And she's driving like there's no tomorrow, no turning back Clinging to what dignity is still in tack Face to face with freedom and determined to survive Destination life On the road she thinks about the way things were If only he'd respected, loved and cared for her He had opportunities to do things right He missed the chance to hear her say good bye -Chorus- It wouldn't have taken much to keep her from walkin' But she gave up and let the miles between them do the talkin' -Chorus- Destination life
