Lyrics

[Verse 1] Monday evening, lying down for bed I got the day's news hangin' in my head I got too much stuff to do And so do you [Verse 2] Went down to Houston to see if I could find That piece of something that could ease my mind I couldn't find the answer, only found more pain When it pours, it rains [Chorus] Honey, can't you see? It's killin' you, it's killin' me Got to leave that ball and chain Livin' that way only brings us pain [Verse 3] Ain't it kinda funny how you can feel alone Even when I'm there, even when I'm home? Handfuls of worry in her fingertips Runnin' from your lips [Chorus] Honey, can't you see? It's killin' you, it's killin' me Got to leave that ball and chain Livin' that way only brings us pain Only brings us pain [Outro] Houston never did no good for me It was just another town with dead end streets And I swore to myself, this time I was comin' home Every time I think I wanna be alone Every time I get a little bit on my own Well, I always regret the things that I never said So I turned it around and headed back to you And I thought about everything I put you through And you deserve better than I've ever let you know Cross my heart, honey, when I die I'll have been a better man with you by my side And I swear I ain't leavin', never leavin' you alone
