Say the Word

We hopped a plane for the place you was raised

And you told me that you loved me so

Your brother, your father, his father before him

You hurt yourself letting them go

And I know that you miss it, 'cause darling, I witnessed

The tears welling up in your eyes

It won't always be easy, but honey, believe me

It all will be worth it in time

You said it don't hurt, and I called your bluff

But honey, I think things might start looking up

You say the word when you've had enough

I don't ever plan on giving you up

I hit the road for some shows in New England

And left you at home with the dog

I wish you'd have seen it, I couldn't believe it

Them people were screaming my songs

And I'm missin' your lovin', you're missin' mine too

But you told me you knew all along

That I was meant for much more than a seven to seven

But it don't change the fact that I'm gone

You said it don't hurt, and I called your bluff

But honey, I think things might start looking up

You say the word when you've had enough

I don't ever plan on giving you up
