SHE WAS
WAITIN' TABLES
IN A DINER
OFFA HIGHWAY 41
ON HIS WAY
TO INDIANA
ON ANOTHER
MIDNIGHT RUN
SO THEY
TALKED ABOUT
THE WEATHER AND
THE NEXT THING
THAT YA KNOW
THE HOURS FLEW BY
LIKE MINUTES
AND IT WAS TIME
HE HAD TO GO
ON A RAINY HIGHWAY
HALFWAY OUTTA TOWN
A VOICE INSIDE HIS HEART
SAID TURN THOSE
EIGHTEEN WHEELS
AROUND
AND GO BACK
YA GOT
SOMEBODY WAITIN'
GO BACK
THAT'S WHERE
YA NEED TO BE
RIGHT NOW
THERE'S NOTHIN'
IN THIS WORLD
MORE IMPORTANT
THAN THAT
SO GO BACK
THEY SETTLED DOWN
IN A LITTLE HOUSE
IN THE SPRING OF '92
AND SHE QUIT HER JOB
AT THE DINER
WITH THE BABY
ALMOST DUE
BUT THOSE
EARLY YEARS
WEREN'T EASY
AND THEY HAD
BILLS TO PAY
SO HE SAID

BUT I'LL BE BACK

ON HIS RADIO
SAID IF YOU WANNA
SEE YOUR
BRAND-NEW DAUGHTER

THAT LOAD AND
GO BACK
YA GOT
SOMEBODY WAITIN'
GO BACK
THAT'S WHERE
YA NEED TO BE
RIGHT NOW
THERE'S NOTHIN'
IN THIS WORLD
MORE IMPORTANT
THAN THAT
SO GO BACK
EVERYBODY HEARD
THE SIRENS
THEY PULLED HIS RIG
OUT OF THE SNOW
IN A RUSH TO SEE
HIS FAMILY
SOMEHOW HE
LOST CONTROL
THOUGH THE DOCTORS
TRIED TO SAVE HIM
HE SLIPPED
INTO THE LIGHT
THEN HE HEARD
THE ANGELS WHISPER
NOW IS NOT YOUR TIME
GO BACK
