Left home a 18 years - Went out to Bakersfield
And he let me down - Yeah, he let me down
Got down onto one knee - She said yes and then ran free
And she let me down - Yeah she let me down
I left home wonderin' and still believin'
There's no reason that I shouldn't still have dreams
My mind's been bogged down by these tears I cry
But things are much clearer now these days
I've had friends and walked alone - And good jobs that I let go
Did I let 'em down? - did I let 'em down?
I've said things that I regret - And done things I wish I could take back
Did I let you down?
I left home wonderin' and still believin'
There's no reason that I shouldn't still have dreams
My mind's been bogged down by these tears I cry
But things are much clearer now these days
Sit back - Enjoy the view
'Cause time changes more than we realize is true
Then get up and move
