You Can Always Be Gone

She spent the summer in Chicago

Spent the winter in L.A.

She can run faster than a river

Sometimes I still hear her sayYou can always be gone

But you can't always make the ride go on and on

You can always drive fast

But you can't always make the long ride lastShe fell in love in Colorado

And drove out west to see the bay

I'll feel sorry for him tomorrow

But he's a lucky man todayShe will always be gone

But she won't always make the ride go on and on

She will always drive fast

But she won't always make the long ride lastOne day she showed up at my house

She said, "Want to get away?"

Want to go to Indiana

A lot of music there they sayI've never been back since

I bought a car and I called it home

I still miss the diner on main street

Miss walking down the old post roadYou can always be gone

But you can't always make the ride go on and on

You can always drive fast

But you can't always make the long ride last
