Lyrics

[Intro] Hmm, hmm [Verse 1] As I watch the golden sun ​ Creep down the mountainside I turn my face to the wind To blow away these tears I've cried Walking down the path I kicked a stone to release some pain Thinking back to days when love Was just like sunshine instead of rain [Pre-Chorus] But I can't help but wonder Just how you feel since you've been gone Is that happy smile you're wearing All just pretend 'cause you're alone (You're alone) Ooh [Chorus] Out in the country All alone with my tears That's where I belong I don't want no, nobody new there (Out in the country) (All alone) I just want, I want you to come back home, baby Oh, let me tell you what I did, baby (Ooo wah, ooo wah) [Verse 2] Ah, Sunday morning I packed a picnic box for two Going out to where we used to go And I'm setting a place for you Spread out on the blanket I took a deep breath of fresh air And it seemed just like old times The only difference is you're not here [Pre-Chorus] I know that it would make more sense To take somebody else But I'm only thinking about you So I'd rather be all by myself, ooh (Myself) [Chorus] Uh, out in the country All alone with my tears You know that's where I belong I don't want to find no, nobody there (Out in the country) (All alone) I just want, I want you to come back home, baby Ooh ooh ooh Come on home Listen [Bridge] Now the sun has set And the day has turned to night I guess that I'll just go on home With my thoughts I'll have to fight Thoughts of the country And how our love began And all the good times that we've shared Right up to the end [Pre-Chorus] And whenever I'm feelin' lonely And this loneliness turns to gloom I'll just take my thoughts to the country Where there's lots of room [Chorus] Ooh, out in the country All alone with my tears That's where I belong I don't want to find nobody there (Out in the country) (All alone) I just want, I want you to come back home, baby Out in the country All alone with my tears That's where I belong I don't want to find nobody, no (Out in the country)
