Lyrics
verse
All those harsh words said at that noisy bar still echo in my mind what a fool I was to let you leave this time But by the time I got to your sister's house she told me you just left to follow a dream that's been in your heart for awhile
chorus
But I missed you by a mile
then I missed that special smile How I missed those loving eyes I missed your warm goodbyes You were headed for LA
verse
And so I put the hammer down along the white line I drove on Tryin' to make the county line before dawn But the man at the filling station said you just stopped in and that you must be westward bound about a mile
chorus
Again I missed you by a mile
then I missed that special smile how I missed those loving eyes I missed your warm goodbyes You were headed for LA
bridge
Now I've got to close the distance that's grown between us even though this road can be so unforgiving I'll put my foot to the floor to make your back door before it's too late
verse
I've long passed the county line now I'm headed for the coast but I feel like I've lost the one I needed most Then in my headlights path a shadow appears by a lifted hood in the far right lane then through the rising steam a face is slowly revealed
chorus
Then I see your special smile
I see your loving eyes I know that I was wrong to talk to you that way now we're headed for LA
