I called a cab while you got drunk
Wanna leave this town before it tears me up
Couldn't find what you were looking for
Now you're runnin' out to the dancing floor
But you still call me after closing time
And say you accidentally pressed my name again
Won't you slow down darlin'
If you fly too fast you might not see the edge
Take the road up the mountain
Cause you won't find truth or peace of mind in a bar room
But you'll find fake love
in a stranger's arms after dark
I remember when you first loved me
And the smile you gave from the passenger seat
Did the fire in your eyes burn out?
I hoped you'd be better off by now
But you still call me on some lonely nights
Say you accidentally pressed my name again
Won't you slow down darlin'
If you fly too fast you might not see the edge
Take the road up the mountain
Cause you won't find truth
Or peace of mind in a bar room
But you'll find fake love
In a stranger's arms after dark
I've found some rest in smaller towns
Where the love runs deep
and the grass grows wild
Did you find what you were looking for?
Cause I found myself on a mountain lake shore
