From where we stood, I could
see the en d
I was drawn unlucky,
tryin' to take it all on the end
She said, no hard feelings, no regrets
As I crushed out my cigarette
The fire was gone and much I knew
So I did the only thing
that I could do
So I just tipped my hat and said,
adios
There's a keys and there's a road
And I hope you find that
rainbow in your sky
But if some wind should blow
your dreams around
And you get lost and up side down
Just trace a track you make
Maybe that old blacktop run
s both ways
I might have found the words
to change her mind
But I just held her to me one last time
And I watched the dust
and the red taillights
And she bent good on her goodbye
Cause there's one thing
I've come to know
She ain't coming back,
and you can't let her go
So I just tipped my
hat and said adios
Here's the keys and there's the road
And I hope you find that
rainbow in your sky
And if some wind should blow
your dreams around
And you get lost and up side down
Just tracing tracks you make
Maybe that old blacktop runs
cold again
So when you get to where
you're go ing to,
and those greener pastures turn to blue,
baby, you don't have to stay,
cause that old blacktop runs
both ways.
