Lyrics
I told you not to call me
and you said you never would again
then you never did
careful what you wish for
Sittin' here on the side of the road
with my head in my hands and an ache in my heart
I can barely stand cause I miss my man
Yeah I miss my man
and I just can't believe it
so I got in my car I had to hear it from you myself
that you love someone else
I drove all night--30 miles to go
and I don't know if you're even home
but I'm missing you--feel like kissing you
I drove all night--30 miles to go
and I just pray when you see me atyour door ( missing me, kissing me)
What am I gonna say when I see you(I can't think about it can't think about it)
What am I gonna do if your not there(i'm gonna sit right down and wait for you)
What if she's there with you
In your bed just holdin' you(Don't Think!)
I'm gettin' in my car
Cause your not really far from me baby
30 miles
