Lyric Everbody s Gotta Go Sometime

(Terri Clark, Gilles Godard & Bobby Tomberlin)

They ve been together now for eighteen years
And every growin pain has led them here
She s packed up that last box in her old Chevrolet
Her mama says Tennessee seems so far away
And it s the first time she s seen her daddy cry.

Chorus:
But everybody s gotta go sometime
Everbody s gotta cross that line
Even though goodbye won t come easy
Leave a little bit of love behind
It takes a lot of faith to find
The strength to walk away freely
Everybody s gotta go sometime.

He found the love note in her dresser drawer
Right then he forgot what he was looking for
A decade of trust just went down the drain
She choked on her words when she tried to explain
And as he walked away, she begged him to stay.

Chorus:
But everybody s gotta go sometime
Everbody s gotta cross that line
Even though goodbye won t come easy
Leave a little bit of love behind
It takes a lot of faith to find
The strength to walk away freely
Everybody s gotta go sometime.

All we really know for sure is nothing stays the same
Don t be frightened by the winds of change.

Chorus:
But everybody s gotta go sometime
Everbody s gotta cross that line
Even though goodbye won t come easy
Leave a little bit of love behind
It takes a lot of faith to find
The strength to walk away freely
Everybody s gotta go sometime.

Everybody s gotta go sometime.
Everybody s gotta go sometime...
