Hardy Car That Drove You Away Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I wish I was a car that drove you away
'Cause if I was, I'd slow you up and slam those brakes
Yeah, I'd break down before you got halfway to your momma's place
But if I can't be the car that drove you away

[Verse 2]
Then I wish I was a light in the center of town
'Cause if I was, I'd stay on red till your gas ran out
And have you killin' time in that old bar we used to close down
But if I can't be the car or the light in the center of town
[Chorus]
Then I wish I was anything but the fool that I feel like
Anything but the guy that let you say goodbye
'Cause I know bein' me ain't gonna bring you back this time
So tonight, baby, I

[Verse 3]
I wish I was a drink you stopped in for
'Cause if I was, I'd be the strongest one they'd pour
And you'd be sippin' on your feelings, hopin' I'd walk through the door But if I can't be the car or the light or the drink you stopped in for

[Verse 4]
Then I wish I was the band playin' in that bar
'Cause if I was, I wouldn't give a damn about that tip jar
And I'd only play the sad ones that cut right through your heart
But if I can't be the car or the light or the drink or the band in the bar

[Chorus]
Then I wish I was anything but the fool that I feel like
Anything but the guy that let you say goodbye
'Cause I know bein' me ain't gonna bring you back this time
So tonight, baby, I

[Outro]
I wish I was the band you hear, the drink you need, the light you hit
If I can't be the man to get you to stay
Then I wish I was the car that drove you away
