I was twenty-one
My dress was second-hand
Got married on a Monday
At the courthouse in Spokane
A witness and a signature
A little silver band
When I dreamed about my wedding day
That wasn't what I planned
First time he ever hit me
I covered up the bruise
He begged for me to take him back
Blamed it on the booze
He's the kind of thunderstorm
That takes all day to brew
I was always in the way
When he'd come tearing through
I never even gave
The Sun a chance to rise
I took off my wedding ring
I didn't say goodbye
'Cause he stumbled in last night
Quarter after one
I could hear him in the kitchen
Take the safety off the gun
Saw a shadow in the hallway
Somethin' whispered run
I never even gave
The Sun a chance to rise
I left the bed unmade
I didn't say goodbye
I didn't say goodbye
I left him in the dark
A hundred miles away
I'm the only pair of headlights
On the interstate
Today's our anniversary
Eleven years I stayed
And I can see the longest night
Is breaking into day
