Lyrics

[Verse 1] The sun is settin' on our time living here You've lost the will, I've lost the heart We should be leavin' while the coast is still clear 'Cause we won't make it after [dark/dawn?] Cash in our chips and we can pack up the car Lock up the door and hide the key [Chorus] The only two things That mean anything to me Are loving you and leaving Tennessee [Verse 2] Silver eagles fly down streets paved in gold The stars keep shining through the dawn Anything that you can dream of to hold You can have here for a song But there's a song tonight that's [riding?] the wind I'm the words and you're the melody [Chorus] The only two things That mean anything to me Are loving you and leaving Tennessee [Bridge] It's just the two of us all out on our own That's the way it ought to be [Chorus] The only two things That mean anything to me Are loving you and leaving Tennessee [Verse 3] We can call up all our friends on the phone Tell 'em someday we'll return First, we have to start to make a new home And we have one last bridge to burn So lay your head down and we'll drive through the night And in the morning light you're gonna see [Chorus] The only two things That mean anything to me Are loving you and leaving Tennessee The only two things That mean anything to me Are loving you and leaving Tennessee
