Oh, your reputation's so golden |
|
You're never lonely and you're never home |
|
I know you've been talking about leaving |
|
You've lost all your feeling for this town |
|
Paint your nails and put on your lipstick |
|
You don't want to miss your ticket out |
|
Just because you graduate from school so high in the gene pool, that's your point of view |
|
But when you're broken down and no one else is around |
|
You'll come running back to this town and i'll be there, yeah i'll be there |
|
'cause i remember how we drank time together |
|
And how you used to say that the stars are forever |
|
And daydreamed about how to make your life better |
|
By leaving town, leaving town |
|
Pack your bags, your smokes in your pocket |
|
You're wearing my locket around your neck |
|
Take a drag and wait for the grayhound |
|
The world is your playground and you want to win |
|
But when you're broken down and no one else is around |
|
You'll come running back to this town and i'll be there, yeah i'll be there |
|
'cause i remember how we drank time together |
|
And how you used to say that the stars are forever |
|
And daydreamed about how to make your life better |
|
By leaving town, leaving town |
|
Nothing in life will ever come that easy |
|
Doesn't mean it has to be that hard |
|
I know you will find out who you are... |
|
But when you're broken down and no one else is around |
|
You'll come running back to this town and i'll be there, yeah i'll be there |
|
'cause i remember how we drank time together |
|
And how you used to say that the stars are forever |
|
And daydreamed about how to make your life better |
|
By leaving town, leaving town |
