Текст песне : Pat Green. One For The Road.
(Pat Green)
Tree blows against my window, there's a storm brewing in my heart
Watching credits roll on a late night TV show
Lonely street light peeking through the cracks in my window shade
After all that he's seen I wonder if he truly knows
Did he watch her when she slammed the door
Like a hammer against the nail
Leaving me in what's become a lonely prison cell
Chorus
I thought always meant forever
I guess you couldn't play second fiddle to my old guitar
Like an old man drinking down at the tavern
Well I was one for the road and now you're headed on back home
I met you at a party, seems like only yesterday
We were falling in love and living to chase our dreams
I gave you flowers on Valentine's
And I had a strong feeling deep down inside
That someday we'd make a home and a family
I'd say I'm sorry in a heartbeat if you would only let me
I could learn to forgive if you could only forget
In a hotel room down in Austin after another one night show
I caught your silhouette creeping down the street under a moonlight glow
And as you took my hand, so went all my pain
We stepped right off the platform and caught the midnight train
Chorus
Tree blows against my window, there's a storm brewing in my heart
Watching credits roll on a late night TV show
Lonely street light peeking through the cracks in my window shade

Like a hammer against the nail
Leaving me in what's become a lonely prison cell
Chorus
I thought always meant forever
I guess you couldn't play second fiddle to my old guitar
Like an old man drinking down at the tavern
Well I was one for the road and now you're headed on back home
