LONESTAR LYRICS - Long Lost Smile

"Long Lost Smile"



She squeezed the handle, topped the tank off

Pulled out her necklace and kissed the cross



El Paso he waved, horizon off the hood

She's going through with something

He never thought she would



By now he's rolling over on his back

He ain't waking up

Not with all the liquors he's had



She'll be halfway to Longview by the time he starts to stir

By the time he opens his eyes she'll already be a blur



You go girl, get in that Cadillac

There ain't no lie in looking back



She tore outta that station

Dust and gravel flying

Sideswiped a couple of highway signs

Tore off both mirrors

Something free and wild

Yeah, seems like ages but there's that smile

That long lost smile



Staring through the windshield

A new look in her eyes

A conscience as clear as the Texas sky



She ran out of patience, out of strength

And out of tears

He ran out of second chances

And now she's outta here



You go girl, don't look back

And there ain't no lie in living like that



She tore outta that station

Dust and gravel flying

Sideswiped a couple of highway signs

Tore off both mirrors

Something free and wild

Yeah, seems like ages but there's that smile

That long lost smile, tthat long lost smile

Yeah, you go girl, you go girl

Hey, you go girl

You go girl
