I couldn't understand
Why my life turned out so wrong
She knew how much I loved her
But she told me to be moving on
She said she just wanted me to go away
Her lawyer filed the papers yesterday
And I was rolling down the road
'Cause she told me she just didn't love me

I could not remember
When I'd ever felt so down
At least when my folks split up
I had some friends around
But this morning I was all alone
All I had left was this truck I own
And I was rolling down the road
Feeling like nobody loved me

I bought myself a six-pack
At some little Utah town
I went looking for a place
Just to end it all six feet down
I found me a curve with a cliff outside
Turned around and headed off for one last ride
'Cause I was sick and tired of living in a world
Where nobody loved me
But then I heard the music
From a tent by the road
And I stopped just to listen awhile
They were singing 'bout Jesus
And freedom and love
Every face that I saw had a smile
Then the preacher stood up
And what he had to say
I don't know how he knew
But it blew me away
He was telling my life
In the smallest detail
Just like somebody somewhere
Had been reading my mail

I didn't know just what to do
I was feeling so strange
Something way down there inside me
Was starting to change
When he said to step out
I came and I prayed
And suddenly I was no longer afraid
'Cause I knew in my heart and my soul
That Jesus, He loved me

Peace like a river
Just flooded my soul
I gave Him the pieces
And He made it up whole
Now I'm living because I know
That somebody loves me
Yes, I'm living because I know
That somebody loves me, yeah
I'm living because I know
That Jesus, He loves me
