"One For The Road" lyrics - STURGILL SIMPSON

Sit down, baby
I got some things that you need to hear
It's been building inside me
And there's some air that we need to clear
What if I told you
I'm not the man that you think I am?
Would you listen or would I only hear
The door behind you slam?
In my face
As I watched you walking out of my world
Knowing it'd be the last day
That I could call you my girl
And that I broke your heart

[Chorus:]
There's nobody but me left to blame
And the face in my mirror won't be the same
I'll sit alone hoping you're okay, but how will I know?
You say my eyes'll never see you again after you go
I love you, but I broke it
And the cracks are starting to show
So before you go, here's one for the road

I've been searching
For a way to say that you should move on
And I think we both know
That you'll be better off after you're gone
You'll find somebody that looks at you
The way you used to look at me
And we both know it's been a while
Since I was the man you used to see
I'm so tired of walking around
Knowing I'm the one that let us down
And I broke your heart

[Chorus:]
There's nobody but me left to blame
There was a fire between us, but I blew out the flame
And ever since, we've both been trying to hang on
But I think we both know that the fire is gone
Our love was a garden
But it seems some weeds have grown
All the flowers have wilted
And the seeds have all been sown
So before we go, here's one for the road
