[Verse 1] Son, you could never rope the wind
To stop the tide from rollin' in
Or goin' out
Just like you can't find the words to say
To change her mind and make her wanna stay
Right now

[Chorus] When she takes that first step to leavin'
It's a winding road that never ends
Until she finds a road to healin'
That brings her back to you again

[Verse 2] Wild horses couldn't hold her, son
It ain't you she's runnin' from
You gotta let her go
No, I can't tell you what she'll do
Even if you're walking in her shoes
It's hard to know

[Chorus] When she takes that first step to leavin'
It's a winding road that never ends
Until she finds a road to healin'
That brings her back to you again

[Bridge] When the voice of the reason says, "Just walk away"
The heart's gonna beg for one more day

[Chorus] When she takes that first step to leavin'
It's a winding road that never ends
Until she finds a road to healin'
That brings her back to you again
Until she finds a road to healin'
That brings her back to you again
