She was waiting tables in a diner off of highway 41

On his way to Indiana on another midnight run

So they talked about the weather, and the next thing that you knew

The hours flew by like minutes

It was time he had to go



On a rainy highway halfway out of town

A voice inside his heart said turn those 18 wheels around...



And go back

You got somebody waiting

Go back

Thats where you need to be... right now

There's nothing in this world

More important than that

So go back



They settled down in a little house

In the spring of '92

And She quit her job at the diner

With the baby almost due

Those early years weren't easy

And they had bills to pay

So he said you know I hate to leave you but I'll be back by Saturday



10 miles out of Tulsa

His boss came on his radio

Said if you wanna see your brand new daughter

You better drop that load



And go back

You got somebody waiting

Go back

Thats where you need to be... right now

There's nothing in this world more important than that

So go back



Everybody heard the sirens

They pulled his rig out of the snow

In a rush to see his family

Somehow he lost control

Though the doctors tried to save him

He slipped into the light

But then he heard the angels whisper...

Now is not your time



Go back

You got somebody waiting

Go back

Thats where you need to be... right now

There's nothing in this world more important than that

So go back
