I gotta Western way of leaving A Southern style o' believing My Northern star for living, a weathered intuition To fill the rear-view mirror With miles of Eastern pines But I got no direction if I can't call you mine Hmm-mm-mm Coffee's cold, the diner's getting loud The angel in my ear says, "Let's break out of this crowd" It's time to go, well, that ain't nothing new So I'll just head on out of view, down the road a stone or two With my Western way of leaving A Southern style o' believing My Northern star for living, a weathered intuition To fill the rear-view mirror With miles of Eastern pines But I got no direction if I can't call you mine Hmm-mm-mm Hmm-mm-mm If you're gone, don't be gone for good I'd turn back the time every morning if I could So here I lay, watch the fan blade cut a breeze I dust off your memory 'Cause I can't change what's come to be I gotta Western way of leaving A Southern style o' believing My Northern star for living, a weathered intuition To fill the rear-view mirror With miles of Eastern pines But I got no direction if I can't call you mine Oh, I got no direction if I can't call you mine Hmm-mm-mm Hmm-mm-mm
