Fulcher, Ray - Life After Your Leavin' Lyrics

Since you tore the book on us
I opened up a brand new chapter
Knocked a couple years dust off the old bass tracker
I had a few too many with Jones and Jennys
When you hit me, it'd been way too long
Mighta even woke up once under that wagon
That you had me riding on

I ain't sayin' your memory don't track me down
And pour a little salt on the pain
I'm just sayin' that I hurt a little bit less
And love more every day
I'm a walkin', talkin', 90 proof just like this drink I'm drinkin'
But there's a light at the end of your long gone tunnel
A life after your leavin'

I reach your picture off the dash, Throw you out of my Silverado
Got sick of you lookin' back and cuttin' into my tomorrow
And I burned that bridge to Heartache Ville
Where I used to go to be alone
Now I left that spot where the clock stood still
Now I'm closin' and I'm movin' on

I ain't sayin' your memory don't track me down
And pour a little salt on the pain
I'm just sayin' that I hurt a little bit less
And love more every day
I'm a walkin', talkin', 90 proof just like this drink I'm drinkin'
But there's a light at the end of your long gone tunnel
A life after your leavin'

Yeah, my heart's still beatin' and I'm still breathin'
Finally gettin' back to me
I'm even thinking maybe my goin' crazy's
Got a chance to rest in peace

I ain't sayin' your memory don't track me down
And pour a little salt on the pain
I'm just sayin' that I hurt a little bit less
And love more every day
I'm a walkin', talkin', 90 proof just like this drink I'm drinkin'
Babe, there's a light at the end of your long gone tunnel
Baby, life after your leavin'
Babe, there's a light at the end of your long gone tunnel
Baby, life after your leavin'

Oh yeah, I'm still alive
Much to your surprise
