[Verse 1]
You walked over, said "Hey!"
And you told me her name
But I didn't hear it
Might've walked out of that bar
But I ran to my car
Like smoke disappearing
I don't know why I'm surprised
I know I ain't got the right
To react like you're mine anymore but
Seeing someone with you
Just hit me out of the blue
Something 'bout it cut right to the core
[Chorus]
I need a drink but damn it I'm driving
Said I was fine but damn it I'm lying
Thought I could fake a smile
At least a couple miles
Turns out I ain't that strong
I need to talk but we ain't talking
Tears need to fall and I can't stop 'em
This heart's about to break
Right on the interstate
I ain't gonna make it home
So I'm pulling over
'Cause I need a shoulder to cry on
[Verse 2]
I got plenty of gas
Ain't nothing, gone flat
Just needed a minute
To have a little breakdown
Go and get it all out right now
The highway and me
[Chorus]
I need a drink but damn it I'm driving
Said I was fine but damn it I'm lying
Thought I could fake a smile
At least a couple miles
Turns out I ain't that strong
I need to talk but we ain't talking
Tears need to fall and I can't stop 'em
This heart's about to break
Right on the interstate
I ain't gonna make it home
So I'm pulling over
'Cause I need a shoulder to cry on
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh
I need a shoulder to cry on
Oh-ooh-oh
[Chorus]
I need a drink but damn it I'm driving
Said I was fine but damn it I'm lying
Thought I could fake a smile
At least a couple miles
Turns out I ain't that strong, no
I need to talk but we ain't talking
Tears need to fall and I can't stop 'em
This heart's about to break
Right on the interstate
I ain't gonna make it home
So I'm pulling over
'Cause I need a shoulder to cry on
