Back to Austin

I left out of Beaumont last December
Headlights aimed toward Tennessee
And, darlin', I can still remember
The look on your face when I took my leave
You cried and said you died inside a little
I swore I'd be home to you in time
Now I feel I'm playing second fiddle
And it's plain that someone else is on your mind
And I recall the day you said you'd always love me
Even if forever was the means
Girl, I should've known that you'd run back to Austin
While I'm trying to keep from cryin' in Tennessee
Well Austin was the one you always wanted
Even when you said you wanted me
These 7-12s have brought me clear to July
And you're not where you said that you would be
And I recall the day you said you'd always love me
Even if forever was the means
Girl, I should've known that you'd run back to Austin
While I'm trying to keep from cryin' in Tennessee
And I've got enough saved up for August
And I could ask my foreman for the time
But today I got the card you sent from Austin
And I'm scared of all the things that I won't find
And I recall the day you said you'd always love me
Even if forever was the means
Girl, I should've known that you'd run back to Austin
While I'm trying to keep from cryin' in Tennessee
Girl, I should've known that you'd run back to Austin
While I'm trying to keep from cryin' in Tennessee
