Little by Little

(Little by little)

I wonder if the road's worth taking

I wonder can a heart stop breaking

I wonder will my hands stop shaking

I wonder will I get there soon and

If there is a destination

I pray to God I'll find the patience

And in the end hope I'm not saying

"What have I done?"

Guess it was a trick of New Mexico light

Caught a glimpse of you in the corner of my eye

But there wasn't nothing on the passenger side

That wasn't behind me

And little by little, babe

You'll forget me

Little by little, babe

And I'll regret this

Little by little, babe

Like I'm losing you

And I can see the proof

In the rearview

Little by little, babe

Goes little by little, babe

I stay between the lines on the pavement

Watch the colors in the sky as they're fading

It's like the mile marker signs have been waiting

For me to pass by

It hit me in the night like a hammer to the heart

I packed what I could find in the back of my car

Watched the sun wipe out all the Arizona stars

And kept on driving

And little by little, babe

You'll forget me

Little by little, babe

And I'll regret this

Little by little, babe

Like I'm losing you

And I can see the proof

In the rearview

Little by little, babe

It goes little by little, babe

It goes little by little, babe

Little by little, babe

Little by little, babe

Little by little, babe

Yeah, you'll forget me

Little by little, babe

I'll regret this

Little by little, babe

Like I'm losing you

And I can see the proof

In the rearview

Little by little, babe

Goes little by little, babe

Maybe I'll call you on a Sunday

A couple summers later, maybe one day

Out of luck, out of love, out of highway

And I'll say, "What have I done?"

And you'll say

"It was little by little, babe

Well, I forgot you

Little by little, baby"
