There I was at the bus stop beggin' you just to stay

A dust trail from a Greyhound headed for the West Coast

While you're out chasin' all your dreams

Tell me where does that leave me
(Chorus)

What about the plans that you left behind
(C)
The little white house by the railway line
(G)
The one we picked out

We even put the payment down

What about the promise that you made

To stay with me till your dying day

Said you'd never go away

The preacher stopped by the house last Tuesday

Asked if I was fine

In this small town
(C)
I guess they heard the news
(D)
'Bout me and you

It's three a.m. and I can't sleep at all

I wonder where you are tonight and do I ever cross your mind

She wonders what went wrong

Could I have loved a little deeper

Or did I hold on too strong

The little white house by the railway line
