If You Ever Went Away

I'd have a few more beers after work
 A few more than I ought to, a few more than I used to
 Hitch a ride with my old buddy John
 Talk about the game that's on
 Yeah, he's pretty good company but he ain't you
 I'd lay my head down and try not to think
 But I would'nt sleep a wink
 Yeah, that's what I'd do
 But if you stay I'm gonna love you
 I'm gonna keep that promise that I made
 'Cause deep inside I know that I'd be lost
 If you ever went away
 I'd probably spend a few more days out on the lake fishin'
 Maybe even catch that big one, oh that'd be somethin'
 Sit up on a big ol' stump watch the day fall down
 Or probably just walk around, head on back to the house
 Go through a door into a place I don't wanna be
 Spend all night hangin' out with old memories
 But if you stay I'm gonna love you
 I'm gonna keep that promise that I made
 'Cause deep inside I know that I'd be lost
 If you ever went away
 If you stay I'm gonna love you
 I'm gonna keep that promise that I made
 'Cause deep inside I know that I'd be lost
 If you ever went away
 I'd spend some time hangin' out with my old buddy John
 Yeah, he's pretty good company but he ain't you
