[Verse 1]
Didn't know how many sweaters and hoodies I had
'Til I packed 'em in a box
Mama tried to hide the tears in her eyes
As I threw 'em in the back of the truck
[Pre-Chorus]
As she hugged me tight, I knew I'd have to be the first to let go
'Fore I drove away, I heard her say, "Be safe and, baby, don't
[Chorus]
Stay gone too long
Don't forget to call
Hope you think of me when you catch all your dreams
Without you, this house ain't a home
Don't stay gone too long
No, don't stay gone too long"
[Verse 2]
Not even twenty-one, I wasn't lookin' for love
No, you weren't a part of my plan
My only home was that wide-open road
Until I held your hand
[Pre-Chorus]
It's late nights on the phone
Two different time zones
It's goodbyes and southbound planes
But I love you enough to wait
Didn't know how many sweaters and hoodies I had
'Til I packed 'em in a box
Mama tried to hide the tears in her eyes
As I threw 'em in the back of the truck
[Pre-Chorus]
As she hugged me tight, I knew I'd have to be the first to let go
'Fore I drove away, I heard her say, "Be safe and, baby, don't
[Chorus]
Stay gone too long
Don't forget to call
Hope you think of me when you catch all your dreams
Without you, this house ain't a home
Don't stay gone too long
No, don't stay gone too long"
[Verse 2]
Not even twenty-one, I wasn't lookin' for love
No, you weren't a part of my plan
My only home was that wide-open road
Until I held your hand
[Pre-Chorus]
It's late nights on the phone
Two different time zones
It's goodbyes and southbound planes
But I love you enough to wait
