A Little Past Little Rock (Album Version)

(jess brown/tony lane/brett jones)
I had to leave my life in dallas
That town will always be you
In every crowd, on every corner
In every face i'd see you
So with nothin' more than a tank of gas
I drove away without lookin' back
And i guess that's how i got where i am
And goin' anywhere as fast as i can
And i'm a little past little rock
Further down the line
Too soon to know what's up ahead
Too late to change my mind
I gotta keep my heart out of this and both hands on the wheel
I'm learnin' more with every mile just how leavin' feels
It's a lonely stretch of blacktop out into the blue
Don't know where i'll go or what i'll do
I'm a little past little rock
But a long way from over you
These headlights on the highway
Disappear into the dark
And if i could have my way
I'd go back to where you are
Oh, but i can't turn this thing around
And nothing short of breaking down
Is gonna get me off this road i'm on
Oh, and i'm still a far cry from gone
And i'm a little past little rock
Further down the line
Too soon to know what's up ahead
Too late to change my mind
I gotta keep my heart out of this and both hands on the wheel
I'm learnin' more with every mile just how leavin' feels
It's a lonely stretch of blacktop out into the blue
Don't know where i'll go or what i'll do
I'm a little past little rock
But a long way from over you
