I'm gonna drive on out
to the river tonight
find a quiet spot
turn on my parking lights
i'm gonna drink some beers
and try to catch a buzz
turn my radio up
and forget about us
i'm gonna lay me down
on the hood of this car
make another wish
upon a falling star
i'm gonna think again
about the way it was
i'm gonna close my eyes
and forget about us
chorus:
i know it won't be easy
but i've got a plan
to just let my memory
let go of your hand
i'm gonna miss your touch
but i know i must
forget about us
and when the morning sun
burns across my face
i'll put my shirt back on
get up and walk away
i'm gonna climb my frame
onto a greyhound bus
take a little blue pill
and forget about us
chorus
by the time i get to phoenix
i won't know your name,
those soft green eyes,
your warm skin
and the way you say good mornin'
i'll be alright
