Some words come and man some words never go
They burn you up inside with a fire
Late at night they fill your hear with paranoid and jealousness

I knew she was leaving
I could see it in her eyes
She tried to sparkle but man the love it just died

So I made it easy for her
I stole her car and headed for the gulf shore

Now I'm still alive on I-65

I disappeared and man how she missed me
I blew a rod and sold the car in New Orleans

I guess the strongest love is a lost love
I guess the strongest pieces from a dying love

I'm still alive on I-65

All my sadness had turned to rage
Don't you dare walk away
Everybody's looking for a shortcut home but love there's no simple way
There's no simple way home now

I'm still alive on I-65
