Every day why I don't know When I pass your house I drive real slow It's out of my way it's crazy for sure Cause you do not live in that house anymore Every night right about now I grow uneasy kind of restless somehow It starts out like thunder on a slow steady roll Then I hit the floor half out of control Baby I wonder if you look the same Do you have children what are their names Does the one that you're with need you all night long Like I never did until you were gone I can recall that night at your place The hurt in your eyes the tears on your face Would you take comfort if now you could see How life without you is torture for me Baby I wonder if you look the same
