[Verse 1]
Been up and do
wn this loneso

Coast to coast
and back agai

I just had to
do things my w
ay
Had to go agai

[Chorus]
Cause I’ve bee
n dreaming of
the girl I lef

Lord she had t

t I’ve ever kn
own
And I’ve been
looking for a
world I’ll nev
er find
Ever since I l

I can smell th

See the way I

Every time I c
lose my eyes
[Chorus]
Cause I’ve bee

the girl I lef

Ever since I l

The only thing
