Intro

1ST verse:

My Mama mapped out the road that she knows

Which hands you shake and which hands you hold

In my hand-me-down Mercury, ready to roll

She knew that I had to go

and hangout, make lots of noise

and lay out late with a boy

Make the mistakes that she made 'cause

she knew all along

Chorus

I was already gone

I was already gone

I was already gone

Life is a runaway train u cant wait to jump on

2nd Verse:

They say the first time wont ever last

but that didnt stop me the first time he laughed

all my friends tried to warn me the day that we met

girl dont u lose your heart yet

but his dark eyes dared me with danger

and sparks fly like flame to a paper

fire in his touch burning me up

but Still I held on

Chorus

cuz I was already gone

I was already gone

I was already gone

life is a runaway train you cant wait jump on

Bridge

The last time I say him, we packed up my things

And he smiled like the first time he told me his name

And we cried with each other We split the blame

for the parts that we couldn't change

Pictures, dished and socks

It's our whole life down to one box

There he was waving goodbye on the front porch alone

But I was already gone

I was already gone

I was already gone

I was already gone

I was already gone

Hangout, make lots of noise

And layout late with a boy

Make the mistakes that she made, life is a runaway train

My mama mapped out the road that she knows

Which hands to shake, which hands you hold

In my hand-me-down Mercury

Life is a runaway train you can't wait to jump on
