You and I spent so many nights Feeling alone lying side by side I take a last look and I say goodnight Blow you a kiss and turn out the light Guess this time I won't be comin' back I'll leave the key under the welcome mat It's a little after midnight And the windin' road ahead looks black I'm drivin' with one headlight And the signs are sayin' don't turn back Tears are fillin' up my eyes I'm tryin' to stay between the lines Can't waste another day livin' a lie I'm on Highway 59 and it's leading to goodbye I see the weepin' willow disappear In our front yard through the rear view mirror These country roads that brought me home for years Now [Incomprehensible] taking me away from here Headin' over Red Mountain Pa** I hope to make Montgomery before I run out of gas It's a little after midnight And the windin' road ahead looks black I'm drivin' with one headlight But the signs are sayin' don't turn back Tears are fillin' up my eyes I'm tryin' to stay between the lines Can't waste another day livin' a lie I'm on Highway 59 and it's leading to goodbye Two lovers holdin' on and wastin' time Thirsty for love but the well's run dry It's a little after midnight And the windin' road ahead looks black I'm drivin' with one headlight And the signs are sayin' don't turn back Tears are fillin' up my eyes I'm tryin' to stay between the lines Can't waste another day livin' a lie I'm on Highway 59 and it's leading to goodbye
