I was always living in a dream
searching for a song
you were always looking out for me
with a love so true and strong
I was always running down the road
barely hanging on
you were always waiting all alone
never knowing where I'd gone
I didn't mean to break your heart
I was a fool to hurt you
I didn't mean to go so far
to abandon and desert you
Now my world is cold and dark
I've learned to sing the blues too
I didn't mean to break your heart
I was a fool to lose you
Another song about the highway and the rain
you'll think that it's a sad one
a lifetime of bittersweet refrains
still I'm grateful to have had one
with a minstrel's soul and a vagabond heart
still living on the run
I remember playing my guitar
while you were dancing in the sun
I didn't mean to break your heart
I was a fool to hurt you
I didn't mean to go so far
to abandon and desert you
Now my world is cold and dark
I've learned to sing the blues too
I didn't mean to break your heart
I was a fool to lose you
Girl
I've been lonely too long
miles and time
come and gone
it's your love that keeps
filling my heart everyday
I didn't mean to break your heart
I was a fool to hurt you
I didn't mean to go so far
to abandon and desert you
Now my world is cold and dark
I've learned to sing the blues too
I didn't mean to break your heart
I was a fool to lose you
