"Then There Was You" lyrics

I still feel it now and then
Like a match to kerosene
The man I might have been
Like a ghost inside of me
Aw but I burnt those ashes
Thank God for second chances

I was wrong way down those tracks
Riding headfirst in the wind
Running long ways up that hill
Alone without a friend
Staring straight into that sun
Cursing up into the blue
If you asked me back then
Hell I was born to lose
Then there was you

Well she lays out a collared shirt
Says she likes the look on me
I hold her hand in the pew at church
And the hymnal while she sings
Man it's hard to believe
The guy I used to be

I was wrong way down those tracks
Riding headfirst in the wind
Running long ways up that hill
Alone without a friend
Staring straight into that sun
Cursing up into the blue
If you asked me back then
Hell I was born to lose
Then there was you

Staring straight into that sun
Cursing up into the blue
If you asked me back then
Hell I was born to lose
Then there was you
