I drove to your mother's house
'cause that's where you were
oh the crazy things
we do for love
one day you look back
you'll say
'I did that for someone'
Rain came pouring down
so I stopped at a bar
I was buying time
going over lines
thinking of all the things
I would say to you
when I arrived
I don't know why
I drove so far
I should have stayed
where I belonged
I guess I wanted
to see for myself
what love looks like
when it falls apart

When I saw you sitting there
at your mother's house
I swear you looked so hard
I never thought
I would see the day
when my pretty girl
would turn so hard
That's when I walked away
never looking back
I said goodbye to that love
she was the best thing
I ever had
and now it's done
I don't know why
I drove so far
I should have stayed
where I belonged
I guess I wanted
to see for myself
what love looks like
when it falls apart
