Do you ever think of me
When you lay your head down
Do you ever think of me
When he ain't around

Do you ever wonder why
Our love couldn't be
Ever since you said goodbye
Do you ever think of me

[Chorus]
Savannah
The memory just won't fade
Savannah
I sure wish you'd stayed with me
Savannah

Do you ever see my face
In your new lover's eyes
Has my memory been erased
Am I out of your life

I still remember our first night
We made love so tenderly
So when he doesn't hold you right
Do you ever think of me

[Chorus]

If he ever lets you down
Happiness just can't be found
I'll still be here hangin' 'round
Savannah

Savannah
(Do you ever think of me)
Savannah
(Do you ever think of me)

Well it's rainin' down in Houston
And I got holes in both my shoes
Baby's put me on the street
She says "I'm through with you"

She thinks I'm gonna miss her
Someone tell her that she's wrong
I'm goin' back to Oklahoma, boys
'Cause that's where I belong

I need one good ride
I'll be satisfied
Come on Oklahoma borderline
If we roll all night
She'll be comin' into sight
Come on Oklahoma borderline

Well now I don't need no Texas girl
Doggin' me around
I may be a Okie, son
But I've still been to town

Well those Oklahoma city girls
They always treat you right
Well tell mama that I'm comin' home (not sure of this line...)
And I'm leavin' out tonight

I need one good ride
I'll be satisfied
Come on Oklahoma borderline
If we roll all night
She'll be comin' into sight
Come on Oklahoma borderline

So with two bucks in my pocket
And my thumb stuck in the wind
When I cross Red River, boys
I won't be back again

Give me old back roads and truck stops
And 18 wheels that whine
And some good ol' boy to take me
To that Oklahoma line

I need one good ride
I'll be satisfied
Come on Oklahoma borderline
If we roll all night
She'll be comin' into sight
Come on Oklahoma borderline

I caught one good ride
She's comin' into sight
Hello Oklahoma borderline

[Chorus]
You better turn me loose
Turn me loose you know that I can't stay
You better turn me loose
Well turn me loose you know I'll make it anyway

Well why don't you tell me
Just what's goin' on
Both of us lyin' here
And we both know it's wrong
So why don't you let me
Why don't you leave it alone
And don't keep hangin' on to a love that's dead and gone

[Chorus]

Well you can't see it's over
That's really a shame
Well our love didn't make it
No one's to blame
So why don't we say goodbye
Why don't we just say we're through
And I'll be on my way
And I'll get by without you

[Chorus: x2]

Turn me loose you know I'll make it anyway

No other lover ever really cared
When I've reached out for you, you've always been there
Now I'm so far away and baby I'm scared
I never knew lonely till you

You are my rock and the strength I need
To keep me sane in this life that I lead
Now I'm not with you and my broken heart bleeds
I never knew lonely till you

I never knew lonely could be so blue
I never knew lonely could tear you in two
I never loved someone like I love you
I never knew lonely till you

I can't make up for the times I've been gone
But I'll prove I love you in the words of this song
Back in your arms, girl it's where I belong
I never knew lonely till you

I never knew lonely could be so blue
I never knew lonely could tear you in two
I never loved someone like I love you
And I never knew lonely till you

I never knew lonely could be so blue
I never knew lonely could tear you in two
I never loved someone like I love you
And I never knew lonely till you

Say you're sorry
You still care
She came by my place again
Cryin' about you man
You should love her
Twice as much
I try to remember you're a friend
But it's gettin' a little rough

She's just tired
Of bein' Cinderella
She can't live that way no more
She needs a little affection
A little understanding
You better be careful 'Cause the next time she comes to my door
She won't be a Cinderella no more

A teardrop trembled
On her face
Where that smile always was
It seemed out of place
And when I held her
Like a friend
I could feel a sweet beginning
But taste a bitter end

She's just tired
Of bein' Cinderella
She can't live that way no more
She needs a little affection
A little understanding
You better be careful 'Cause the next time she comes to my door
You'll be sorry

'Cause it seems like
It's always something with you
And everybody's always wrong
One of these nights
You'll reach for the pillow she sleeps on
And she's gonna be gone

She's just tired
Of bein' Cinderella
She can't live that way no more
She needs a little affection
A little understanding
You better be careful 'Cause the next time she comes to my door
You'll be sorry

What if I say I love you
Would it mean as much as it used to
Could it help the hurt that we're putting us through
What if I said goodbye

What if tomorrow you wake up
And I'm not around what you break up
Would you take one towards me to make up
What if I said goodbye

What would you do if I did what I should have done long ago
Is there someone you'd turn to as soon as I left
Someone you already know

What if I say I love you
Would you want to make up like I do
Could we possibly salvage the dreams we knew
What if I said goodbye

What would you do if I did what I should have done long ago
Is there someone you'd turn to as soon as I left
Someone you already know

What if I say I love you
Would it mean as much as used to
Could it help the hurt that we're putting us through
What if I said goodbye

Sunrise through the evergreens
Another day is born
The hills take on a golden glow
A Carolina morn

I used to see you in her eyes
Now I just got to know
Oh Carolina, how could you let her go

[Chorus]
Oh Carolina, if I'd only known
Oh Carolina, I would have never gone

I thought the beauty of your hills
Would hold her here for me
I never dreamed while I was gone
You'd ever set her free
I trusted you with all my heart
And the only love I've known
Oh Carolina, how could you let her go

[Chorus: x2]

I would have never gone

There you go now baby
Here am I well you
Left me here so I could
Sit and cry
Golly gee what have you
Done to me
Well I guess it doesn't matter anymore

Do you remember baby
Last September, how you
Held me tight
Each and every night
Ooh how you
Drove me crazy
Well I guess it doesn't matter anymore

[Chorus]
There's no use in me a cryin' and I've
Done everything and now I'm sick of tryin'
I've thrown away my nights
Wasted all my days over you

Now you go your way baby
And I'll go mine
Now and forever
'Til the end of time
Well I find somebody new baby
We'll say we're through
And you won't matter anymore

[Chorus]

Now you go your way baby
And I'll go mine
Now and forever
'Til the end of time
Well I find somebody new baby
We'll say we're through
And you won't matter anymore

You won't matter anymore
You won't matter anymore

If she'd only knew what I was thinking
If she'd only knew what was in my head
Why can't she see my heart is breaking
She'd be mine if it weren't for him.

So many times I dreamed I had her
I call her name when I lay down
Still I can't learn to live without
Her jealous heart is all I found.

See your face would be my destiny
Now I won't take what you can give to me
This lonely place is all I hope to find
If it weren't for him then you'd be mine.

If he'd only knew what I was thinking
If he'd only knew what was in my head
Why can't he see my heart is breaking
He'd be mine if it weren't for him.

You'd be mine if it weren't for him
