Fallin' Off the Heartline

Got me thinking ‘bout those good old days

Driving downtown in your Chevrolet

And I never will forget the way

You looked at me

And I can’t say that I don’t miss you

Heard you moved on now and found somebody new

Yeah, it’s been a year or two

Since I saw your face

But I was just, mmm, yeah

Thinking back when you kissed me at the game

Half time, had my heart burning up into flames

And you made sure I knew you weren’t lyin’

That you weren’t ever gonna leave

I'm standing on the bleachers screaming your name

Still looking for your eyes, I’ll never be the same

But I know, yeah, I know when you’re way up high

You gotta catch yourself before fallin’ off the heartline

Are your mom and dad doing well?

Heard they bought the county hotel

And I still hear the church bells

Ringing in my ears

But I was just, mmm, yeah

Thinking back when you walked out of my life

It was goodbye, when I saw the taillights

And I thought you’d be back, but that cut me like a knife

I’m standing on the porch screamin’ your name

Still lookin’ for ways not to blame

But I know, yeah, I know that we’ve reached full time

You gotta catch yourself before fallin’ off the heartline

Oh, yeah

And I know that’s how it goes, it’s always the way

When you’re getting through life day by day

And I really do, I really wish you well

Tell your mom and dad I said I hope they’re good

Running into you, it’s all misunderstood

Thinkin’ all the things I could say, but we’ve gone overtime

You gotta catch yourself before fallin’ off the heartline

Got me thinking ‘bout those good old days

Driving downtown in your Chevrolet

And I never will forget the way

You looked at me
