The Difference Between Going And Really Gone

By our house runs the highway only forty feet away

And in the driveway sits the car I could use to get away

But up the sidewalk comes the reason I’m still hanging on

The little girl that makes the difference

Between going and really gone

You tell me it’s all over there’s no reason left to stay

You’ve already found another and I’m only in the way

But passed the mailbox walks the reason I’m still hanging on

The little girl that makes the difference

Between going and really gone

Here comes six years of difference between going and really gone

Fifty pounds of reason just walked across the lawn

Into the arms of a daddy that just can’t do her wrong

For I help create the difference between going and really gone

Yes I help create the difference between going and really gone
