Red roadside wildflower, if I had only picked you
Took you home set you on the counter, oh at least a time or two
Maybe she'd've thought it through
Yellow sunset slowly dippin' down in the rear view
Oh, how she'd love to sit and watch you
I could have done that a whole lot more
If I hadn't been so stubborn, been so selfish
Thought about her more, thought about me less
Joked to make her laugh, held her when she cried
A little more of that, maybe I wouldn't be
Drivin' like hell, flyin' like crazy down the highway
Callin' everyone we know
Stoppin' any place she might be
Goin' any place she might go
Beatin' on the dash, screamin' out her name at the windshield
Tears soakin' up my face
If I'd o' loved her this much, all along
Maybe, maybe, yeah, maybe, she wouldn't be gone
She wouldn't be gone
She warned me it was comin', said if I didn't change she was leavin'
I just didn't believe, she would ever really walk out
God, I believe her now
Called her mama, cried like a baby to her best friend
If they've seen her, they ain't sayin'
They ain't sayin'
Now, I'm cursin' like a fool, prayin' it ain't too late
All I wanna do is fix my mistakes
Find her, beg her for one more try
Until then, damn it, I'll be
Drivin' like hell, flyin' like crazy down the highway
Callin' everyone we know
Stoppin' any place she might be
Goin' any place she might go
Beatin' on the dash, screamin' out her name at the windshield
Tears soakin' up my face
If I'd o' loved her this much, all along
Maybe, maybe, yeah, maybe, she wouldn't be gone
She wouldn't be gone
I wouldn't be drivin' like hell, flyin' like crazy down the highway
Callin' everyone we know
Stoppin' any place she might be
Goin' any place she might go
Beatin' on the dash, screamin' out her name at the windshield
Tears soakin' up my face
If I'd o' loved her this much, all along
Maybe, maybe, yeah, maybe, she wouldn't be gone
She wouldn't be gone
Red roadside wildflower, if I had only picked you
Took you home, set you on the counter
Oh, at least a time or two
Maybe she'd've thought it through
