Put me on your list of sorrows Go on and write me down I'm telling you I'm gone tomorrow I'm leaving this southern town We've been going on a year and I wonder Night after night, lying in bed With your silence loud as thunder Why won't you tell me what runs through your head I used to think forever with you A voice in my head says boy, you got to go A voice in my heart says stay Sometimes with you I can feel so alive But it's killing me today You push me and pull me and push me away I don't know how much a man can take Give me time, is that what you're trying to say I'll give you days and days and days I'll give you all the time in the world A voice in my head says boy, you got to go A voice in my heart says stay Sometimes with you I can feel so alive But it's killing me today Put me on your list of sorrows Go on, write me down I'm telling you I'm gone tomorrow I'm leaving this southern town I'm leaving this town
