Carrie Underwood-The Night Before Life Goes On
Sittin up on the roof.
Sneakin a smoke by the chimney, checkin out the moon & the city lights.
He takes off his flannel shirt & he drapes it around her shoulders, slides up behind her and holds on tight.
And she says I don't want this night to end, why does it have to end?
Tomorrow she'll be rollin down I-10 Baton Rouge LSU 18 years in her rear view.
He's got a Friday paycheck lined up down the block at daddy's shop, it ain't much but it's a job.
They've been dreadin this moment all summer long.
The night before life goes on.
Oh, a tear falls off her cheek & right when it hits his arm he says Come on baby, let's get out of here.
Take one last drive around town and man it already looks different.
He bangs the wheel and says Life ain't fair, and this growin up stuff man I don't know I just don't wanna let you go.
(Chorus)
That's what my momma told me and just like those kids I didn't wanna listen to no one.
Yeah, there's nothin you can do, there's nothin you can say.
And I know how it feels when love goes away.
(Chorus)
But, here it is they don't have long.
The night before life goes on.
Yeah......
