- Jedd Hughes - "High Lonesome"
(Jedd Hughes and Terry McBride)
I saw this boy and girl tonight,
Reminded me of you and I in better days.
Then I saw him steal a kiss,
I realize, you're all I miss an' that's all it takes.
I get that heart achin', on the edge of breakin',
Never ending road that's twistin',
Takin' me back to where we were back then.
I get that high lonesome, low down an' then some,
Whiskey drinkin', what was I thinkin',
Why I ever left you, feelin' again.
It's been forever since I've seen you,
The grass still isn't any greener on the other side.
Someone told me: "Live and learn: play with fire and you'll get burned," and I did:
Now I'm paying the price.
An' I get that heart achin', on the edge of breakin',
Never ending road that's twistin',
Takin' me back to where we were back then.
I get that high lonesome, low down an' then some,
Whiskey drinkin', what was I thinkin',
Why I ever left you, feelin' again.
I tell myself I'm over you,
then I wake up to the cold, hard truth again,
And again.
I get that heart achin', on the edge of breakin',
Never ending road that's twistin',
Takin' me back to where we were back then.
I get that high lonesome, low down an' then some,
Whiskey drinkin', what was I thinkin',
Why I ever left you, feelin' again.
I get that high lonesome, low down an' then some,
Whiskey drinkin', what was I thinkin',
Why I ever left you, feelin' again.
Whiskey drinkin', what was I thinkin',
Why I ever left you, feelin' again.
