I practiced some lines in the mirror
But I couldn't settle on one
I could be James Dean another shot at that scene
'Stead of standing there lookin' dumb
And I hung on to wasted memories
Didn't want to face the pain
Recalling some of the things I done that
Neither one of us could change
C H O R U S:
You could cry yourself to sleep in the morning
And I'll come home drunk at night
You could give me a final warning and then
Man we'll have a hell of a fight
You could say that we tried everything we could
As I'm reaching for my hat
But you just can't get in your car and leave
Honey how can it end like that
Now I know that it's all over
And I know it won't be back
Didn't even cry or say goodbye
Don't I mean any more than that
C H O R U S
But you just can't get in your car and leave
Honey how can it end like that
