(john michael montgomery/david lee/johnny park/elbert west)



I've crashed and burned my old firebird

And walked away without a scratch

And i've had my share of backwoods barroom brawls

Been kicked and cussed and busted up

But it was nothin' i couldn't patch

With a band-aid or a shot of alcohol



But this one's gonna leave a mark

One that time won't heal

Her good-bye cut like a knife

Right through this man of steel

Thought that i was tough enough

I could just shake it off

But even when i pretend it doesn't hurt at all

I know deep down in my heart

This one's gonna leave a mark



Lovers came and went but never made a dent

But none were quite like her

I was a fool to not beg her to stay

Filled with pride i just stood by

And never said one word

But i knew the moment that she walked away



This one's gonna leave a mark

One that time won't heal

Her good-bye cut like a knife

Right through this man of steel

Thought that i was tought enough

I could just shake it off

But even when i pretend it doesn't hurt at all

I know deep down in my heart

This one's gonna leave a mark



Thought i was superman

With a heart of stone and i couldn't feel

Now here i am

Standing all alone and here's the deal



This one's gonna leave a mark

One that time won't heal

Her good-bye cut like a knife

Right through this man of steel

Thought that i was tought enough

I could just shake it off

But even when i pretend it doesn't hurt at all

I know deep down in my heart

This one's gonna leave a mark



I've crashed and burned my old firebird

And walked away without a scratch
