Lyrics
VERSE
He left the house with no goodbye
It was just a normal Friday night
Gone off to spend some time with friends
Had his whole life ahead of him
Around the curve, he saw headlights swerve
CHORUS:
There was no way to know
Once the tires hit the road
That his breath would be taken away
He had so much left to do
In the prime of his youth
He had so many things left to say
We don't know when we'll see him again
So we'll visit that white cross next to mile marker 110
VERSE 2:
A part of them died that night
The only thing to do was ask god why
The pain they have feels outta control
Who can imagine the unimaginable
Someone else's mistake took their baby away
CHORUS 2:
There was no way to know
Once the tires hit the road
That his breath would be taken away
It's hard to have faith
When they can't see his face
But they still have things they wanna say
They don't know when they'll meet again
So they visit that white cross next to mile marker 110
BRIDGE:
The other driver was drinkin'
Damn sure wasn't thinkin'
When he started to drive away
He can't give back the life
That he took that night
But could he for-give him-self one day?
CHORUS 3:
There was no way to know
Once the tires hit the road
That his life would be forever changed
Now he carries the cross
Of a heartbreaking loss
And he can't seem to shake the shame
He can't say sorry...to...the man
So he visits his white cross next to mile marker 110
