I pulled to the side of the Interstate
I just couldn't go on
I'd been chasing the morning like some young fool
Living out an old song
How on earth could I lose you like this
Now you're with heaven knows who
And I'm halfway to Georgia
With a car full of mem'ries of you
I let a keeper get away
How could I been so blind
I let a keeper get away
There's only one one of a kind
I didn't know just what we had
But this time I really messed up bad
Now I guess I gotta pay
I let a keeper get away
Found a picture of us underneath my seat
Looking for my red flashlight
It was taken last summer at your momma's place
Holding each other real tight
I just don't need reminders like that
Clutterin' up my heart
So I'll just put it in my pocket
And keep it right next to my heart
I let a keeper get away
How could I been so blind
I let a keeper get away
There's only one one of a kind
I didn't know just what we had
But this time I really messed up bad
Now I guess I gotta pay
I let a keeper get away
I didn't know just what we had
But this time I really messed up bad
Now I guess I gotta pay
I let a keeper get away
