Well it could have been Vegas Or somewhere way out west Somewhere where the world Ain't beating back into my chest From hearing you saying goodbye Could've been in Memphis With an old man singing my blues Instead of way out here Without a damn thing to do I know it's over and you don't love me anymore Why Indiana, why not San Anton? I'd still be drinking, just not on my own This busted heart, yeah it hurts so bad I laugh just to keep from crying Why Indiana, on a clear sky day? Why not in Portland, in the pouring rain? To hear your voice on the other end of the phone Say you're tired of trying Could've been in person Could've been face to face Maybe you could've let me Watch you drive away And see those tail lights fade Why Indiana, why not San Anton? I'd still be drinking, just not on my own This busted heart, yeah it hurts so bad I laugh just to keep from crying Why Indiana, on a clear sky day? Why not in Portland, in the pouring rain? To hear your voice on the other end of the phone Say you're tired of trying So tired of trying Why Indiana, on a clear sky day? Why not in Portland, in the pouring rain? To hear your voice on the other end of the phone Say you're tired of trying So tired of trying Why'd you quit trying?
