Karaoké Racing the Dark Alan Jackson

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's headed north out of Savannah

Stretchin' her pride and gasoline

Heart as empty as that red gauge

Askin' God to help her see

Why he took her there

Why he broke her heart

Where the wheels will stop

And the healin' starts

Chasin' I-ninety-five

And racin' the dark

It's been two years now she's just startin' to see

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

She's so used to runnin' can't get nowhere sittin' still

In the silence of the mornin' she feels his love and always will

She's headed southbound toward Savannah

Stretchin' her pride and gasoline

Heart as empty as that red gauge

Askin' God to help her see

Why to go back there

When she'd come so far

If she really stops

Will the healin' start

Chasin' I-ninety-five

And racin' the dark

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

Even standin' there she still can't believe

She never saw it comin' 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

Makin' friends with memories

Her heart is fragile but it's open

Thankin' God He helped her see

Why He took her there

How He'll heal her heart

When her runnin' stops

So her life can start

Right off I-ninety-five

And facin' the dark

Right off I-ninety-five

And facin' the dark
