This heart's been a suitcase on a highway Lost track of what day and what town Gettin' gone in the night, no sign of slowin' down 'Til a look that made whiskey feel sober Melted ice with one touch of her hand And the rolling stone that I always was had a place to land In a world full of heartaches and tough breaks And winnin' way less than you lose It's better off with a goodbye when it ain't right I've been there but I'm tellin' you You better hang on for dear life Don't let go if you find you Something worth holding on to No, you don't take a good love for granted Or the rock that it's on turns to sand It took letting her slip through my hands to understand In a world full of heartaches and tough breaks And winnin' way less than you lose It's better off with a goodbye when it ain't right Well, I've been there but I'm telling you You better hang on for dear life Don't let go if you find you Something worth holding on to And it's a long sleepless night, it's going out of your mind It's telling yourself everything but the truth In a world full of heartaches and tough breaks And winnin' way less than you lose It's better off with a goodbye when it ain't right Well, I've been there but I'm telling you You better hang on for dear life Don't let go if you find you Something worth holding on to Cause she was something worth holding on to
