Well I don't know how to tell you 
But I'm not the man for you 
I left my heart in a hotel room 
Down the road a town or two 
I guess I tried a little hard 
To hold onto what I got 
Sometimes it feels like this old trains just 
Runnin' out of stops 

And I won't always feel this way 
And I'm just living day to day 
Since my body's torn and tangled 
And my baby went away 

Drinkin' too much beer with an old man 
In a little place downtown 
He said watch out for god and the army boy 
'Cause they'll get you when you're down 
And I'll be the first to tell you 
I gotta let go of them old dreams 
But I swear by god that little girl 
Was the best thing I ever seen 

And I know she had to go 
And I try but it takes a while you know 
When your body's torn and tangled 
And there's nothin' left to hold 

I'm a little past bein' angry 
I'm in the middle of bein' blue 
My shirt is stained with all those things 
I swore I'd never do 

And sometimes when sleep won't come 
I know I am not the only one 
Who got their body torn and tangled 
And their love out on the run
