This One's Gonna 'leave A Mark'

(john michael montgomery/david lee/johnny park/elbert west)

I've crashed and burned my old firebird
And walked away without a scratch
And i've had my share of backwoods barroom brawls
Been kicked and cussed and busted up
But it was nothin' i couldn't patch
With a band-aid or a shot of alcohol

But this one's gonna leave a mark
One that time won't heal
Her good-bye cut like a knife
Right through this man of steel
Thought that i was tough enough
I could just shake it off
But even when i pretend it doesn't hurt at all
I know deep down in my heart
This one's gonna leave a mark

Lovers came and went but never made a dent
But none were quite like her
I was a fool to not beg her to stay
Filled with pride i just stood by
And never said one word
But i knew the moment that she walked away

This one's gonna leave a mark
One that time won't heal
Her good-bye cut like a knife
Right through this man of steel
Thought that i was tought enough
I could just shake it off
But even when i pretend it doesn't hurt at all
I know deep down in my heart
This one's gonna leave a mark

Thought i was superman
With a heart of stone and i couldn't feel
Now here i am
Standing all alone and here's the deal

This one's gonna leave a mark
One that time won't heal
Her good-bye cut like a knife
Right through this man of steel
Thought that i was tought enough
I could just shake it off
But even when i pretend it doesn't hurt at all
I know deep down in my heart
This one's gonna leave a mark

I've crashed and burned my old firebird
And walked away without a scratch
