If I Stay

Lately the ties that bind Feel like a noose around my neck Chokin' the life from me And leavin' my dreams gaspin' for breath I've lost sight and so have you of the man you were attracted to We lost me somewhere along the line And I can't live like this no more knowing just outside that door There's a road that leaves this all behind There's a half a tank of freedom in my Chevy and I'm leavin' And there's nothin' in this world you can say So don't insist on standin' in my way I can't find me if I stay If you really love me if you care at all You'll gladly step aside I've given you the best of me And now the rest of me is gonna take a ride There's a gravel road that turns into a two lane black top highway That stretches out for miles and miles and miles And the mileposts and the road signs are pointin' out a white line To a man I haven't been in quite awhile There's a half a tank of freedom in my Chevy and I'm leavin' And there's nothin' in this world you can say So don't insist on standin' in my way I can't find me if I stay I can't find me if I stay I can't find me if I stay I can't find me if I stay I can't find me if I stay
