Never, No Not Once

Ran outta gas somewhere in Arizona

So, I started walking through that red mud

You said you saw God through one of them picture sliding viewers

And He walked with you through the rain

Remember running through all them pine roads?

Back when we were just kids and we swore we had everything figured out

Ain't it something, how life keeps moving?

Heard you're having a baby now and you're moving

On and on, we just keep rambling down the road

Highways and skylines take us back to places we'd been before

And your heart got me through it

Yeah, your heart got me through it (you)

Oh, oh—oh

Oh, how could I have ever held my breath?

Oh, oh—oh

I'm sinking to that dried—up riverbed, the older I get

So much more that I'm thinking about ways I might wind up dead

But never, no, not once do I think about my life without you in it

Water's filling up all them side streets

But that's alright, we'll just take the highways for a while

Roadside motels, how many times have we raised Hell?

Besides, them wide roads, always sooner than Bright Eyes best

So, put on something exciting like that CCR record you bought me back

When I was feeling sorry for myself

I used to fucking hate it when you'd ask, "Have you ever seen the rain, babe?"

When I was pissed off 'bout some other bullshit

So, how many times have we made it through?

I know it ain't your job to always get me through it, yeah

You've been through enough for the both of us

That's why I thank God that He gave me you, yeah

Oh, oh—oh

Oh, how could I have ever held my breath?

Oh, oh—oh

I'm sinking to that dried—up riverbed, the older I get

So much more that I'm thinking about ways I might wind up dead

But never, no, not once do I think about my life without you in it

Oh, oh—oh

Oh, how could I have ever held my breath?

Oh, oh—oh (yeah)

I'm sinking to that dried—up riverbed, the older I get

So much more that I'm thinking about ways I might wind up dead
