Lyrics End Like That - Bruce Robison

Practiced some lines in the mirror
But I couldn't settle on one
I could be James Dean another shot at that scene
Stead of standin' there lookin' dumb

And I hung on to wasted memories
I didn't want to face the pain
Recallin' some of the things I done
That neither one of us could change

You could cry yourself to sleep in the mornin'
And I'll come home drunk at night
You could give me a final warnin' and then
Man we'll have a hell of a fight

You could say that we tried everything we could
As I'm reachin' for my hat
But you just can't get in your car and leave
Honey how can it end like that?

Now I know that it's all over
And I know it won't be back
Didn't even cry or say goodbye
Don't I mean any more than that

You could cry yourself to sleep in the mornin'
And I'll come home drunk at night
You could give me a final warnin' and then
Man we'll have a hell of a fight

You could say that you tried everything you could
As I'm reachin' for my hat
But you just can't get in your car and leave
Honey how can it end like that?

But you just can't get in your car and leave
Honey how can it end like that?
