Song Description

After a long life together and many great memories, One day she just left me and now I am having to move on.

Lyrics

MILEPOSTS


THE FALL COLORS
ARE SO BEAUTIFUL IN VIRGINIA
ON A SLOW
SUNDAY AFTERNOON DRIVE

THE THOUGHT OF YOU
IN A WARM EMBRACE
STARTS A TRICKLE IN MY EYE
WHILE THE AUTUMN WINDS
SLOWLY HELP THEM DRY

CHORUS
IT WAS ONLY A MEMORY
OF YOU AND I ONE SATURDAY
THE DAY I WATCHED YOU
WALK OUT OF MY LIFE

I CAN NEVER GET OVER YOU
AND I CAN NEVER GET YOU BACK
AND I'M DRIVING
PAST THE MILE POST OF OUR LIFE...
GOODBYE

VERSE II
THE TOP'S DOWN
AND THE SUNLIGHT'S SHINING
THROUGH A SUGAR MAPLE SKY
AND I CAN ALMOST CATCH THAT SPARKLE IN YOUR EYE

VERSE/BRIDGE
I WOULD GIVE ANYTHING
FOR HOT BUTTERED TOAST
AND YOU AND ME DRINKING COFFEE
IN OUR BATHROBES
RADIO'S PLAYING NPR
ON A LAZY DAY AT HOME
WITH A BLANKET ON OUR LAP
AND THE CAT CUDDLED UP INSIDE

CHORUS
IT WAS ONLY A MEMORY
OF YOU AND I ONE SATURDAY
THE DAY I WATCHED YOU
WALK OUT OF MY LIFE

AND I WOULD GIVE ANYTHING
FOR JUST A MINUTE MORE WITH YOU
INSTEAD OF DRIVING PAST
THE MILEPOST OF OUR LIFE...
GOODBYE (whispered)
GOODBYE
