Trent Tomlinson - I Was Gonna Leave Tomorrow Anyway lyrics

rate me

She packed that pontiac

Like a pack rat piled high with paper sacks

Two quarts of oil, her calico cat

Man, I never seen a woman get so mad

She caught me by surprise

When goodbye rang into the night like a steel wind chime

Caught in a storm that was gettin' worse

An' she just grabbed purse

I can't believe she said it first

'Cause I was gonna leave tomorrow anyway

I had my car all gassed up

Everything was all in place

I let her have her glory, then her faith

My heart will break an' that's okay

I was gonna leave tomorrow anyway

I watched her tail lights disappear

Grabbed a beer, chucked it down so my eyes could clear

An' fear appeared

An' suddenly silence was the only thing my heart could hear

An' this room is a tomb with empty walls, a broken broom

With marks of leavin' on the floor

Made by her shoes

Like she knew what I was gonna do

Still, I can't believe she left so soon

'Cause I was gonna leave tomorrow anyway

I had my car all gassed up

Everything was all in place

I let her have her glory, then her faith

My heart will break an' that's okay

I was gonna leave tomorrow anyway

I bet she's somewhere between

Alberquerque, Amarillo

Even at our favorite cafe

I wish I had the guts to call

Just so she could hear me say

'Cause I was gonna leave tomorrow anyway

I had my car all gassed up

Everything was all in place

I let her have her glory, then her faith

My heart will break an' that's okay

I was gonna leave tomorrow

I was gonna leave tomorrow anyway, yeah

Oooh
