Traffic backed up for a mile on highway 5
Rain on the windshield, I can see the smokin' flash of lights ahead
An 18-wheeler had turned over on its side
And pinned underneath it was a car that looked just like the one you drive
And I died inside
For a moment, in an instant, you were gone
Not knowing, those few minutes, felt so long
And I prayed you were alright
And I could hold you one more time
Cause god knows that I don't know what I'd do, if I lost you
If I lost you
I pulled over on the shoulder of the road
My mind was racing, fearing for the worst as I reached for the phone
And all I can think about was ever wakin' up
And trying to face this world alone
And trying to live without your love (without your love)
For a moment, in an instant, you were gone
Not knowing, those few minutes, felt so long
And I prayed you were alright
And I could hold you one more time
Cause god knows that I don't know what I'd do, if I lost you
Did I give you all my best
Or leave our love is left unsaid
No one else could love me baby, like you do
Cause god knows what I'd do
If I lost you
Oh baby, if I lost you
