Lyrics
Friday said goodnight, hardly slept last night , hotel curtains drawn
Had an awful scare, thought I lost you there, when I knew all along
that some thing was wrong
Bouncing through the day drinking time away, didn't have a clue
Happy for your smile had been quite awhile but I never knew
That soon it'd be two
And I said why don't you follow me down
Have you used up your patience or is it this town
In a world where nothing seems true I wish you had told me
that this had to be off to Austin with you
Laid it on the floor heard this song before I was not surprised
had to go away thought I heard you say this is where love dies
Wont you open your eyes
Cause I said why don't you follow me down
Have you used up your patience or is it this town
In a world where nothing seems true I wish you had told me
that this had to be off to Austin with you
I stood up with you felt that dream come true trying hard to believe
She looked in your eyes never felt so high all the lows were in me
I hoped no one could see
When she said why don't you follow me down
Have you used up your patience or is it this town
In a world where nothing seems true I wish you had told me
that this had to be
And I said why
