    *** Unconfirmed ***
    Sixteen miles away and I'm chasing every exit
    I know I left you lonesome, broke, and high
    Every night and day, I've been searching for new direction
    I'm starting to believe the well is dry
    Cuz maybe I can't say but I've come to miss you lately
    Maybe it's not right for me to try
    Something about your way that still haunts me in my reverie
    At least I understand the reason why

    (Chorus)
    Goodbye to rum and roses
    Goodbye to rum and roses
    Goodbye to rum and roses
    Goodbye to rum and roses

    Sixteen hours a day and I've dreaded every moment
    Even Joe from Oak Street won't say "hi"
    And I can hear you sigh from the reaches of my memory
    Now I'm left to cruise the countrywide

    (Chorus)

    The least that I can do is to keep the wheel steady, leave it to the engine to decide
    Trading pawn for pawn passed my neighbors down on Sun Street and hoping my new friends enjoy the ride
    Cuz after yesterday, I can't help but think it's crazy
    Maybe there's no need to say goodbye
    Say the words, I'll turn around and sail the midnight freeway 'til I see you waiting on the other side

    (Chorus)
