Well here we are again, same old barstool
I'm looking at the clock,
like man where are you?
Maybe you ran out of gas,
maybe you picked up a shift
Maybe you're just running late,
ah yeah that must be it
I don't know why you ain't answering my calls
I don't know why but I think it's all my
fault I'm just trying to make sense of it all
But some things don't make sense at all, damn
They say it's darkest before the dawn
They say no one's ever really gone
They tell me that I gotta stay strong
But right now I'm just missing my friend
I know heaven is a place on earth Where
I'll go and you just got there first
Swinging the pines round that old creek
bend Wait for me where the back road ends
Where the back road ends Can't wait to see you again
Where the back road ends
Some nights I drive around the city
all alone And I stop by your house,
see if your mama's
home She asks me to stay for dinner, we sit down
and talk about you We go through old photographs and laugh,
man
it's hard without you Remember where we used to park
And stay out till way after dark Away
from the noise and under the stars
I like to think that's where you are
They say it's darkest before the dawn
They say no one's ever really gone
They tell me that I gotta stay strong
But right now I'm just missing my
friend I know heaven is a place on earth
Where I'll go and you just got there first
Swinging the pines round that old creek bend
Wait for me where the back road ends Where the back road ends
Can't wait to see you again Where the back road ends
I taste strawberry wine,
came on the radio last night,
man I cried
Thought about all the times we had together
You always think the grunt'll last forever,
damn
They say it's darkest before the dawn
They say no one's ever really gone
They tell me that I gotta stay strong
But right now I'm just missing my friend
I know heaven is a place on earth Where
I'll go and you just got there first
Swinging the pines round that old creek
bend Wait for me where the back road ends
Where the back road ends Can't wait to see you again
Where the back road ends
I hope you got a smile on your face and your heart said peace,
amen
Where the back road ends
