Look What Followed Me Home

Well, I made my plans

To leave you far behind

To put you in my past

And get you off my mind

So, I took your memory

On a midnight ride

Down a dark and lonely backroad

And left you there to die

But look what followed me home

I thought I was alone

But your memory

It's coming back to me

I thought I'd left it behind

And had you off my mind

But I see I was wrong, wrong, wrong

Look what followed me home

Well I walked down to the river

At the break of dawn

With a picture of you, darlin'

Up underneath my arm

I said, the heartache's over

Today is your last day

Then, I thanked that muddy river

As it carried you away

Look what followed me home

I thought I was alone

But your memory

It's coming back to me

I thought I'd left it behind

And had you off my mind

But I see I was wrong, wrong, wrong

Look what followed me home

Yeah, I see I was wrong, wrong, wrong

Look what followed me home
