You've been a part of my life for so very long

It's hard for me to believe sometimes that you're really gone

I tuck your memory away in that special hiding place

Hoping no one could tell by the look on my face

That you're still in my heart, always on my mind

Part of my everyday

Like just last night I went out for a bite

I tried to have fun with all of my might

But even the laughter, it wasn't much of a break

'Cause right in the middle of my salad and steak

Bobby Joe walked in with a couple of friends

And said, "Hey have you heard from her at all man like

Where's she been?"

And it, struck a nerve

And it, hit a vein

You'd think from all the tears I cried

And this broken-hearted pain

I wouldn't have to carry you around with me

But it seems like everywhere I go

Somebody wants to know where you've been

Are you comin' back again, I swear

I can't take you anywhere

So I left all alone, just headed back home

As I listened to the messages on my telephone

There was one from my sister

And one from an old friend

He said, "I drove by your house tonight dude but

You weren't in

Just checkin' up on you boy, I hope you're doin' alright

Oh by the way man, I seen her last night

And it, struck a nerve

And it, hit a vein

You'd think from all the tears I cried

And this broken-hearted pain

I wouldn't have to carry you around with me

But it seems like everywhere I go

Somebody wants to know where you've been

Are you comin' back again, I swear

I can't take you anywhere

I swear, I can't take you

Just can't take you

I can't take you anywhere

I can't take you anywhere

I can't take you anywhere

I can't take you anywhere
