It'll be twelve months to the day in an hour since you left me
Eleven months three weeks since I left town
First stop was tendin' bar down in Baton Rouge
Thinkin' I could get away from you
But you were on my mind every time I turned aroundSo then I went to Austin, Texas
Then Phoenix, then I flew outta L A X
Lord I can't believe it's been a year
I keep leavin' but you're still hereTouched down in Seattle waited tables in a coffee shop
I tried my hand down in Reno dealin' cards
Took a bus to try my luck on the East Coast
Spent a week with my blues in Chicago
But everywhere I went you were in my heartI almost thought I lost you in D.C.
But in Boston your memory caught up with me
For every mile I've cried a million tears
I keep leavin' but you're still hereSo if you're wonderin' why I'm standing on your doorstep
It's lcause you never left
I'm here to ask you for another chance
'Cause baby I just can't forgetThe way you used to hold me and show me
You loved me like you'd never ever let go of me
For me that feelin' never disappeared
I keep leavin' but you're still here
I can't keep leavin' 'cause you're still here
