Well I knew you was goin', but you didn't have to go all the way

And then a week turned into a month or two

Now it's been about a year ago

Well, I knew you was goin', but I never was a knowin'
That you'd ever wanna go that far

I'd a never let you go that day
I knew you was a goin', buy you didn't have to go all the way
