This Ain't Forever

(album: Dear Mom, - 2013)

Well, I left yesterday headed west
I kissed you goodbye, you wished me the best
I told you I loved you still, but you don't know why
Yeah, I always leave in the nick of time
Yeah

I said I've got to go, but I'll be back real soon
I'll be coming home with the harvest moon
Tell your mom and them I love them too
Ooh, I dreamed about this, I dreamed about you

But when darkness turns to day
My memories fade away
Away

You need to know that this ain't forever
I might be gone tonight, but I won't be gone forever
We might be apart for now, but soon we'll be together
But you need to know, oh, that this ain't forever

This highways got my heart tonight
You can have it back, but it's gonna take a fight
Motel rooms and long midnight drives
This road, it breathes a brand new life

But when darkness turns to day
My memories fade away
Away

You need to know that this ain't forever
I might be gone tonight, but I won't be gone forever
We might be apart for now, but soon we'll be together
But you need to know, oh, that this ain't forever

But when darkness turns to day
My memories fade away
Away

You need to know that this ain't forever
I might be gone tonight, but I won't be gone forever
We might be apart for now, but soon we'll be together
But you need to know, oh girl, that this ain't forever

Well, I left yesterday headed west
