Country Music Won't Let Me
Every time I leave you in the past
Just when my mind quits lookin' back
I hear a hurtin' song
That takes me back where we went wrong
It's like every word and melody
Was written just for you and me
I'd give anything if I could just move on
But country music won't let me
It's way too real
It hits me heavy
Right when I'm lettin' go
It keeps me holdin' on
That lonely, cryin' steel guitar
Re-breaks the broken in my heart
Thought I'd be over you already
But country music won't let me
It follows me everywhere I go
In the bar, in the car, on the radio
Even when I turn it off
I still sing along
And when the needle
Falls on Patsy Cline
I fall to pieces every time
I'd give anything
If I could just stay strong
But country music won't let me
It's way too real
It hits me heavy
Right when I'm lettin' go
It keeps me holdin' on
That lonely, cryin' steel guitar
Re-breaks the broken in my heart
Thought I'd be over you already
But country music won't let me
Can't nothin' but a memory
(Nothin' but a memory)
But I wish it could forget me
Country music won't let me
It's way too real
It hits me heavy
Right when I'm lettin' go
It keeps me holdin' on
That lonely, cryin' steel guitar
Re-breaks the broken in my heart
Thought I'd be over you already
But country music won't let me
It won't let me
Yeah
Just when my mind quits lookin' back
I hear a hurtin' song
That takes me back where we went wrong
It's like every word and melody
Was written just for you and me
I'd give anything if I could just move on
But country music won't let me
It's way too real
It hits me heavy
Right when I'm lettin' go
It keeps me holdin' on
That lonely, cryin' steel guitar
Re-breaks the broken in my heart
Thought I'd be over you already
But country music won't let me
It follows me everywhere I go
In the bar, in the car, on the radio
Even when I turn it off
I still sing along
And when the needle
Falls on Patsy Cline
I fall to pieces every time
I'd give anything
If I could just stay strong
But country music won't let me
It's way too real
It hits me heavy
Right when I'm lettin' go
It keeps me holdin' on
That lonely, cryin' steel guitar
Re-breaks the broken in my heart
Thought I'd be over you already
But country music won't let me
Can't nothin' but a memory
(Nothin' but a memory)
But I wish it could forget me
Country music won't let me
It's way too real
It hits me heavy
Right when I'm lettin' go
It keeps me holdin' on
That lonely, cryin' steel guitar
Re-breaks the broken in my heart
Thought I'd be over you already
But country music won't let me
It won't let me
Yeah
