Where I Stay the Same

Verse 1

I packed my suitcase by the back door light

Left your old ring on the nightstand shelf

That highway hums like a lullaby

Singing I'll get by all by myself

Chorus

So goodbye ain't the whole of it

Just the last word I have to say

I'm taking the long road home again

Where my own hearts and hollers play

Goodbye ain't the whole of it

It's just the end of the show

Post-Chorus

Gonna ride

Gonna ride

Down a road I know

Verse 2

You loved my perfume but never my name

Loved the bright lights but not where I'm from

I'll take my fiddles and my rising flame

Back where the morning comes undone

Chorus

So goodbye ain't the whole of it

Just the last word I have to say

I'm taking the long road home again

Where my own hearts and hollers play

Goodbye ain't the whole of it

It's just the end of the show

Post-Chorus

Gonna ride

Gonna ride

Down a road I know

Bridge

Don't you cry for me darlin'

The stars still know my name

I'm not lost I'm just walking

Back to where I stay the same

Chorus

So goodbye ain't the whole of it

Just the last word I have to say

I'm taking the long road home again

Where my own hearts and hollers play

Goodbye ain't the whole of it

It's just the end of the show

Outro

Gonna ride

Gonna ride

Down a road I know
