On a crowded highway
Through a night alone
I was barely breathing
I was crawling home
Well, its quite not London
Or the south of France
Or an Asian Island
Or a second chance
Going back to Nashville
Thinking bout the whole thing
Guess you gotta run sometimes
Maybe Im a fast train
Blowin through a valley
Watching all my life go by
Youre a distant memory
Youre an exit sign
I was talking crazy
On the drivers side
And I know I hurt you
But I cant confess
Was that blood or a wine stain
On your wedding dress
Going back to Nashville
Thinking bout the whole thing
Guess you gotta run sometimes
Maybe Im a fast train
Blowin through a valley
Watching all my life go by
Going back to Nashville
Laughing at a bad break
Whats the use of wondering why?
Maybe Im a storm front
Blowing through a valley
Tearing up a good July
And its safe and warm
Where nothing ever happens
Could it be so hard
To realign a star or two
Change a southern night for you
Going back to Nashville
Thinking bout the whole thing
Guess you gotta run sometimes
Maybe Im a fast train
Blowin through a valley
Watching all my life go by
Going back to Nashville
Laughing at a bad break
Whats the use of wondering why?
Maybe Im a storm front
Blowing through a valley
Tearing up a good July
Going back to Nashville
Im going back to Nashville
Going back to Naaaaahh....
Going back to Nashville
Whats the use of wondering why?
