Chasing Cars For Truth

She was sunlight through my window pane

Every laugh an whisper, eased my every pain

a love like ours wasn't built to last just a fleetin dream

now she's gone leavin echoes in the breeze

I walk through empty halls chasin cars for truth with a heavy hearted sound

her picture on the mantel but she ain't around

Her gentle words haunt me like a restless ghost

In this broken hearted silence I feel her absence most

She took my world away left me chasin cars for truth dancin in a whiskey river ballet

standin in shadows where memories play

How I thought we'd conquer time but man I was just a fool chasin cars for truth loves a cruel tool

The old jukebox is silent where our song used to play

No more dancin in the moonlight no more sweet midnight serenade

Every night I'm drownin in a glass half full of tears dancin in shadows where memories play

Rememberin the love we shared an all the wasted years

Chasin cars for truth as the Autumn leaves fall just like shattered dreams

Her name etched in sorrow like a desperate scream

How I long to hold her an erase this endless pain

all that's left is heartache in this bitter rain

I wonder through memories chasin cars for truth tryin to find a sign chasin cars for truth

I learned that love ain't a moment that fades over time

the silence keeps on growin like a shadow in the night Left without a guidin light chasin cars for truth

She left her coffee by the window

Still warm when the morning train rolled through

I kept her picture in an old shirt pocket

Like a fool keeps hopin for what ain't true

She said she'd meet me where the cottonwood bends low

Past the church with the leanin steeple bell

the dust came up an the hour kept turnin

Chasin cars for truth I learned some goodbyes don't say farewell

She broke the strongest thing in me

Took a two-lane heart an made it bleed

Now every Sunday wears her perfume

every empty chair remembers her

Chasin cars for truth, I loved her past the end

Chasin cars for truth,She never loved me back again

I sold the ol' pick up truck to settle up the whiskey

Paid the landlord with the last of my pay

Her sister said she found a town out westward

married some wealthy guy with a rented painted on velvet smile

I don't blame the rain for fallin

I don't blame the night for being long

I blame the hand that keeps on reachin

For a hand that's been gone all along

She broke the strongest thing in me

Left her name nailed to a dead-end street

If heaven keeps a book of lost believers

Mine is written in shadows an ink,Chasin cars for truth, sometimes love Ain't Enough,I loved her past the end

She took the knife carved her own way out, left me dancin in a whiskey river ballet, chasin cars for truth l learned that love ain't a memory that fades over time, chasin cars for truth what happened to us? what happened to her? she stopped lovin me yesterday,chasin cars for truth,what happened to me? Man I was just a fool, l stopped lovin her today,chasin cars for truth loves a cruel tool
