Lyrics:
I am here to tell my story
Some will listen, some won’t care
Some will talk right over me
As my words drift in the air
Words don’t come easy
At least they never did
That’s maybe why (s)he left me
All the things I should have said
Prechorus
It's the road of good intention
And I just stood right there
Chorus
Well I, I should have chased those tail lights
I should have pleaded come back
I should have said something, done something
More, for her eyes to see
That's my story
Tail light rhapsody
I could see her tail light dimly
As (s)he drove away that night
Why didn’t I stop and get her/him back
I could of put up a fight
But fightin’ ain’t my strong point
I’m a lover can’t you see
But love is just a word
When (s)he ain’t got no love for me
Prechorus
I'm telling you
So you don't make the same mistakes I made
Chorus
Well I, I should have chased those tail lights
I should have pleaded come back
I should have said something, done something
More, for her eyes to see
That's my story
Tail light rhapsody
Instrumental
Well, I guess I’m just a fool
Or a man/woman who got lazy
‘Cause I let that man/woman go and leave
Now I’m drivin' myself crazy
Chorus
Well I, I should have chased those tail lights
I should have pleaded come back
I should have said something, done something
More, for her eyes to see
That's my story
Tail light rhapsody
