If You Ever Went Away Lyrics

I'd have a few more beers after work
A few more than I ought to
A few more than I used to
Hitch a ride with my old buddy John
Talk about the game that's on
Yeah he's pretty good company but he ain't you
I'd lay my head down
Try not to think
But I wouldn't sleep a wink
Yeah that's what I'd do
But if you stay I'm gonna love you
I'm gonna keep that promise that I made
'Cause deep inside I know that I'd be lost
If you ever went away
I'd probably spend a few more days out on the lake fishin'
Maybe even catch that big one

Aw that'd be somethin'
Sit up on a big ol' stump
And watch the day fall down probably just walk around
Head on back to the house
Go through a door into a place I don't wanna be
Spend all night hangin' out with old memories
But if you stay I'm gonna love you
I'm gonna keep that promise that I made
'Cause deep inside I know that I'd be lost
If you ever went away
If you stay I'm gonna love you
I'm gonna keep that promise that I made
'Cause deep inside I know that I'd be lost
If you ever went away
I'd spend some time hangin' out with my old buddy John
Yeah he's pretty good company but he ain't you
