she ain't gone

pick up trucks and wrangler jeans

in a field counting our small town dreams

it was late at night

her and i

laying there watching the stars fly by

we were only seventeen

it was nice knowing everything

what i'd give to relive those times

all so clear as the southern sky

lookin' back keeps this man from moving on

i still see her smilin' sitting next to me

but the only thing left is an empty seat

cause i've lost the only thing i've ever known

i still hold on

she ain't here

but she ain't gone

barstools and empty booths

that last call was our last call too

nah i ain't proud of the things i said

the ones you can't forget running through my head

can't let go of the pain from the day you left

those tail lights fading away

what i'd give to relive those times

all so clear as the southern sky

lookin' back keeps this man from moving on

i still see her smilin' sitting next to me

but the only thing left is an empty seat

cause i've lost the only thing i've ever known

i still hold on

she ain't here

but she ain't gone

she could of had my last name

i only got myself to blame

what i'd give to relive those times

all so clear as the southern sky

lookin' back keeps this man from moving on

i still see her smilin' sitting next to me

but the only thing left is an empty seat

cause i've lost the only thing i've ever known

i still hold on

she ain't here

but she ain't gone

yeah she ain't gone
