[Verse 1]
I packed my bags, you cried your eyes
It doesn't get much easier to say goodbye
I never called to get this right
Always the same thing every time
[Pre-Chorus 1]
So here's a song for all of the times
I never called much, you were on my mind
[Chorus]
I hope you know (I hope you know)
When I'm out on the open road
I count the days til I get home so we could be alone
I've seen the mountains, lakes, the tall palm trees
But they don't compare with what you mean to me
[Verse 2]
You dropped me off for the door
Tell her I can't do this anymore
I kiss your head, I'm out the door
I promise I'm worth waiting for
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I won't forget to charge my phone this time
As long as you stay on the other line
[Chorus]
I hope you know (I hope you know)
When I'm out on the open road
I count the days til I get home so we could be alone
I've seen the mountains, lakes, the tall palm trees
But they don't compare with what you mean to me
[Bridge]
I know it feels like I'm a ghost when
You're in the bedroom all alone and
You've got our picture on the night stand
Fell asleep with the TV on again
[Verse 3]
So play this song at night when
You're feeling left behind
And if you swear to hold on tight then
I'll be right by your side
[Chorus]
I hope you know (I hope you know)
When I'm out on the open road
I count the days til I get home so we could be alone
I've seen the mountains, lakes, the tall palm trees
But they don't compare with what you mean to me
I count the days til I get home so we could be alone
