You never liked this place where we¡¯ve been livin¡¯ all along
|
So you packed up your things and bought a one-way ticket home
|
Leavin¡¯ never hurts as much as bein¡¯ left behind
|
|
Chorus:
|
I would change my life
|
I would make it right
|
I would change my life
|
If you would only change your mind
|
|
I have spent my hours on some misbegotten dreams
|
And I have spent my money on some foolish-hearted things
|
And I have spent my memories on old and bitter wine
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Birds are flying south to spend the wintertime
|
Skies are turning blue to gray
|
The fire we started here will soon be burning down
|
And it gets colder every day
|
|
I wish that I could find the words to make you come back home
|
I wish I could say the things you needed for so long
|
I wish you could see me now
|
Baby, then you¡¯d find
|
|
