It'll be twelve months to the day in an hour since you left me Eleven months three weeks since I left town First stop was tendin' bar down in Baton Rouge Thinkin' I could get away from you But you were on my mind every time I turned around So then I went to Austin, Texas Then Phoenix, then I flew outta L A X Lord I can't believe it's been a year I keep leavin' but you're still here Touched down in Seattle waited tables in a coffee shop I tried my hand down in Reno dealin' cards Took a bus to try my luck on the East Coast Spent a week with my blues in Chicago But everywhere I went you were in my heart I almost thought I lost you in D.C. But in Boston your memory caught up with me For every mile I've cried a million tears I keep leavin' but you're still here So if you're wonderin' why I'm standing on your doorstep It's lcause you never left I'm here to ask you for another chance 'Cause baby I just can't forget The way you used to hold me and show me You loved me like you'd never ever let go of me For me that feelin' never disappeared I keep leavin' but you're still here I can't keep leavin' 'cause you're still here
