A freeway runs right past my home
It's the home where you left me to live alone
And I admit I feel good knowin' you feel hurt
Every time you pass by on your way to work

Got a sign on my roof it's twenty feet high
Read it and weep when you drive by
A daily reminder that you broke our vow
Reads: If You Loved Here, You'd Be Home By Now

The fact that you're angry 'cause you're stuck in a jam
Brings a little bit of comfort to this lonely man
But what's better than this is the pain you must feel
Every time you gotta drive your automobile

It's standin' tall to remind you of all you're missin'...
If you'd be home right now
We'd be lovin' and huggin' and kissin'
If you loved here...

You thought you found a new love but it didn't come through
Yeah, he's long gone now
He's a cheater too
And that long long drive it's two hours plus
You've got a lot of time to think and it's gotta be rough

When you see that sign that's twenty feet high
You must read it and weep as you drive by
This daily reminder that you broke our vow
