Hes going back to georgia
Because he knows time and time has come
Dont even know if shell be waiting
Because hes been gone for way too long

How long will you stay
Boy you dont got nine lives to waste
How long will you stay
Saving time losing grace

She believed every word he told her
About the troubles and how they start
She didnt listen to the laughter
She only listened to her heart

How long will you stay
Boy you dont got nine lives to waste
How long will you stay
Saving time losing grace

She didnt believe
She didnt believe
She didnt believe
She didnt believe

He made a promise to no one
That he could right a wrong
He wanted to do something just
But he was just gone

How long will you stay
Boy you dont got nine lives to waste
How long will you stay
Saving time losing grace

She didnt believe
She didnt believe
She didnt believe believe believe

She didnt believe what they told her about her lover
Nothing left bet her tears and theirs were laughter
Forever after
