The fear of overhearing a conversation that takes away everything you believe in -in a matter of seconds.
Lyrics
I’m Outta Here
1.
A phone call conversation, to the tune of ‘love you darlin’
Come round Friday mornin’’, that stopped me in my track
‘Oh, babe I need your lovin’, I promise soon I’ll leave him’
A brief exchange of kisses, that stabbed me in the back
Chorus:
Everybody’s got a home to go to
Most of them will find a bed to share
Some lucky ones will have someone to hold them close
Tonight she’ll turn and know... I’m outta here
2.
I snuck back for my wallet, left on the kitchen table
She didn’t hear me enter but she damn sure heard me leave
Man I love this Chevy; I’ve always loved this Chevy
Gonna drive to Lake Arkabutla and get some space to grieve
Chorus:
Everybody’s got a home to go to
Most of them will find a bed to share
Some lucky ones will have someone to hold them close
Tonight she’ll turn and know ... I’m outta here
Bridge:
The bar door closes, to the tune of ‘See you laters’
Handshakes,back slaps and a chorus of ’Goodnights’
I fire up my Chevy and I head out to the highway
I’m goin’ my way, to a better life
Chorus:
Everybody’s got a home to go to
Most of them will find a bed to share
Some lucky ones will have someone to hold them close
Tonight she’ll turn and know ... I’m outta here
Instrumental/Tag:
Some lucky ones will have someone to hold them close
Tonight she’ll turn and know that I’m outta here
Tomorrow she’ll wake and know ... I’m outta here
