Lyrics

There's a red outline where that diamond used to be


Another time-stamped love ends in casualty


A one-bedroom apartment is now her greatest fear


As the crash of all the memories ring from ear to ear


And she'd headed north out of Savannah


Stretching her pride and gasoline


Heart is empty as that red gauge


Asking God to help her see


Why he took her there


Why he broke her heart


Where the wheels will stop


And the healing starts


Chasing I-95


And racing the dark


It's been two years now, she's just starting to see


Her life is hers again and who she's gonna be


She's so used to running, can't get nowhere sitting still


In the silence of the morning, she feels his love and always will


And she'd headed Southbound towards Savannah


Stretching her pride and gasoline


Heart is empty as that red gauge


Asking God to help her see


Why to go back there


When she comes so far


If she really stops


Will the healing' start


Chasing I-95


And racing the dark


There's a red outline where some roses used to be


Even standing there, she still can't believe


She never saw it coming, thought she'd be the one to leave


She whispers, "I love you," and falls down on her knees


And now she's back home in Savannah


Making friends with memories


Her heart is fragile but it's open


Thanking God He helped her see


Why He took her there


How He'll heal her heart


When her running stops


So her life can start


Right off I-95


And facing the dark


Right off I-95


And facing the dark
