[00:12.09]I tried going west where the sky meets the sun
[00:18.01]Where the edge of the world's always been
[00:21.19]
[00:23.38]As far from this place as a girl gets to run
[00:27.00]
[00:28.13]When her reasons to stay have worn thin
[00:31.63]
[00:33.75]Out there the days were so bright and so blue
[00:37.32]Yet I missed all my thunder and rain
[00:40.38]
[00:42.44]The way a storm punctures a hot afternoon
[00:46.31]
[00:48.25]Washing away every stain
[00:50.63]
[01:03.81]When my maps pointed north they were calling for snow
[01:07.44]
[01:09.25]To cover all sound and all sight
[01:12.37]
[01:13.44]Tell me where on this earth does all that noise go
[01:18.26]
[01:20.07]Underneath all of that white
[01:23.26]
[01:24.57]With thaws scarcely mentioned I dug out my truck
[01:29.57]By the time the storm cleared I was gone
[01:33.94]Back on the road with the radio up
[01:37.11]
[01:40.23]Singing at the top of my lungs
[01:42.48]
[02:06.10]Driving and crying and driving some more
[02:11.54]Oh the south is a good place to hide
[02:16.31]Hot nights, cold beer and creaky screen doors
[02:21.18]
[02:21.69]And a motel's vacancy sign
[02:24.12]
[02:26.31]A letter a day I wrote back home to you
[02:31.63]But not one you ever received
[02:34.13]
[02:35.94]Because I can't stand a man who lies like you do
[02:40.44]
[02:41.44]And I can't bear a woman who pleads
[02:44.45]
[03:06.38]One day it dawned I had run out of road
[03:11.83]
[03:13.70]And out of reasons to run
[03:16.26]Like a horse to the barn I was hell bent to go
[03:21.58]
[03:22.46]As fast going back as I'd come
[03:24.95]
[03:27.39]Home, home was the song that I sang
[03:32.33]
[03:33.33]As I pulled in just before dark
[03:35.70]
[03:36.51]There was only a hook where your coat used to hang
[03:40.39]
[03:42.58]That's where I hung up my heart
[03:45.14]
[03:57.39]I tried going west, where the sky meets the sun
