TRACE ADKINS
"Everything Takes Me Back"
(Casey Beathard / Michael White)

It's a song, on the radio
It's your picture on the wall in my bedroom
It's any one, of a million memories
Girl, everything takes me back but you

It's every place, that we've ever been
It's runnin' into someone we both knew
Or it's the face, of a total stranger
Girl, everything takes me back but you

[Chorus:]
I've called you up, I've begged and pleaded
Left love letters at your door
Though I broke your heart, you gotta believe
It hurt me even more
So what's it gonna take, what do you wanna hear
Girl, I think I've paid my dues
And it might be just, but it doesn't seem fair
That everything takes me back but you

It's a sound, or it's the silence
It's the thought that what I've done I can't undo
Or it's the dream, I can't put behind me
Girl, everything takes me back but you

[Chorus:]
I've called you up, I've begged and pleaded
Left love letters at your door
Though I broke your heart, you gotta believe
It hurt me even more
So what's it gonna take, what do you wanna hear
Girl, I think I've paid my dues
And it might be just, but it just ain't fair
That everything takes me back but you

[Bridge:]
It's the night or it's the mornin'
It's the thunder rollin' in, before it rains
Or it's a long, long, long, long stretch of highway
Girl, it's nothin', and it's everything, it's everything

[Outro:]
Yeah, everything takes me back but you
Girl, everything takes me back but you
