First you laugh Then you cry When you think of all them hours gone by The ones you loved And the loves you lost And late at night alone you count up the cost
I'm chasing something I thought was real But it ain't even close to how she made me feel I don't care anymore if my dreams come true I may be bound for glory But I'm making Georgia blue
A motel room And a neon sign The sound of her voice on the telephone line You've come so far But you can't run From the sound of your heart as it comes undone
I'm chasing something I thought was real but it ain't even close to how she made me feel I don't care anymore if my dreams come true I may be bound for glory But I'm making Georgia blue
This damned old freeway It ain't going nowhere It's tearing my heart between here and there
You've come so far But you can't run From the sound of your heart as it comes undone
Oh, and I'm chasing something I thought was real But it ain't even close to how she made me feel I don't care anymore if my dreams come true I may be bound for glory Yes, it's the same old story I may be bound for glory But I'm making Georgia blue
