[Verse 1]

Baby, I've been thinking about it

I can't get my finger on it

Just what it was I did so wrong

Baby, I've been dreaming about it

Yeah my sleep revolves around it

Gotta face the facts and see your gone

But it's hard too just move on

And not remeber all our songs up

Till midnight all alone


[Chorus]

I still got you picture taped to the dashboard

On the mantle right by the front door you

Said if you leave you'd never come back

Well baby I don't believe that's were it's at

It's all of wrong times, all of the right things

In my right mind to say things I don't mean

But baby that's me and it's way to late

But I still got your picture on the dashboard


[Verse 2]

And I ain't like I use to be tough as hell and hard to please

But you came along and this old boy hit his knees

And the day was to much without you yeah my life revolved

Around you and you dropped a stone down on my heart

And now I can't move on

Cause we danced to all our songs

Up to midnight all alone


[Chorus]

I still got you picture taped to the dashboard

On the mantle right by the front door you

Said if you leave you'd never come back

Well baby I don't believe that's were it's at

It's all of wrong times, all of the right things

In my right mind to say things I don't mean

But baby that's me and it's way to late

But I still got your picture on the dashboard


[Bridge]

Oh when I'm driving down this old backroad

Way to fast, I'll never know

Girl I can't look down, cause I'll see your eyes

Right next to 65


[Chorus]

I still got you picture taped to the dashboard

On the mantle right by the front door you

Said if you leave you'd never come back

Well baby I don't believe that's were it's at

It's all of wrong times, all of the right things

In my right mind to say things I don't mean

But baby that's me and it's way to late

But I still got your picture on the dashboard
