He's going back to georgia

Because he knows time and time has come

Don't even know if shell be waiting

Because he's been gone for way too long



How long will you stay

Boy you don't got nine lives to waste

How long will you stay

Saving time losing grace



She believed every word he told her

About the troubles and how they start

She didn't listen to the laughter

She only listened to her heart



How long will you stay

Boy you don't got nine lives to waste

How long will you stay

Saving time losing grace



She didn't believe

She didn't believe

She didn't believe

She didn't believe



He made a promise to no one

That he could right a wrong

He wanted to do something just

But he was just gone



How long will you stay

Boy you don't got nine lives to waste

How long will you stay

Saving time losing grace



She didn't believe

She didn't believe

She didn't believe believe believe



She didn't believe what they told her about her lover

Nothing left bet her tears and theirs were laughter

Forever after
