Lyric Steady As She Goes

(Don Cook/Ronnie Dunn/Kix Brooks)

Tonight I came home late again
She didn t ask me where I ve been
Her bags were packed and sitting by the door
She looked at me and said goodbye
I did my best to change her mind
But she don t want to hear it anymore

She s steady as she goes
Now she s not crying
If I said it didn t hurt
I d be lying
Where she got the strength to leave
Heaven only knows
But she s rock steady as she goes

It tears me up to watch her go
But deep inside my heart I know
Leaveing is the only choice she has
I guess she finally got the nerve to give me just what I deserve
She s had enough and she ain t looking back

She s steady as she goes
Now she s not crying
If I said it didn t hurt
I d be lying
Where she got the strength to leave
Heaven only knows
But she s rock steady as she goes
