Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You were my first love, I thought you'd be my last love
When you said, "my love, you're all I'll ever need".
I took you at your word - then I knelt and surrendered
But that meant far less to you than what it meant to me.

[Verse 2]
If I see our friends, I might slowly go crazy
When they talk about you or bring up your name.
When the night sky pretends there's no stars left in heaven
That's when I wind my way back to these streets again.

[chorus]
I'm gonna find me a place on some far away mountain
Past where the dirt roads all come to their end.
I'll sit by a creek bed, and fill it with tears like you taught me
Then I'll start forgettin' your memory again.

[bridge]
If I walk that whole range and those roads wind forever
They won't take me away from how our life used to be.
Our county fair nights, dreams baptized in moonlight
Where you and me danced under that old oak tree......

[chorus]
So I'll find me a place on some far away mountain
Past where the dirt roads all come to their end.
I'll sit by a creek bed, and fill it with tears like you taught me
And I'll try forgettin' your memory again.

[Post-chorus]
I'm back forgettin' your memory again
