Let's burn the last song to the ground
Let's take a train out of this town
I'm scared of the sun, I'm scared of the crowd
Let's leave before it's too dark

Dirty hands they steal guitars
But I see you better with the stars
All the girls are crazy except you
They never heard of Emmylou

Remember laughing just because?
Remember nights without a cause?
I found myself by the river
Wondering who's the goddamn leader

My baby will never leave me
Cuz she just knows my love is true
Stay right here in my arms forever

Tonight you had too much to drink
So I drove us home without thinking
I know you know you saved my life
From going "so lonesome I could cry"

Now I need to kill some time
To find a way to pay you back
Forget money honey count on it
I promise that I'll never quit

Remember laughing just because?
Remember nights without a cause?
I found myself by the river
Wondering who's the goddamn leader

My baby will never leave me
Cuz she just knows my love is true
Stay right here in my arms forever
Everything feels so much better now
