Wednesday morning 'round five o' clock |
|
The day begins, it never stops |
|
We wake up to a little light peaking on through |
|
Downstairs to the kitchen we go |
|
Eat breakfast, sip a cup of |
|
Joe On the counter there, |
|
I left you a rose |
|
Next to a note for the airport |
|
Quickly eat and puff a smoke |
|
The TV blares and the stove is broke |
|
No need to talk or crack a joke |
|
I packed your bags and we hit the road |
|
Start the car and end the day |
|
Knew this was coming 'round the end of |
|
May But it's easier said than done |
|
Made our bed and we had our fun but... [Hook] |
|
She's leaving-leaving home |
|
Home-home-home-home |
|
She's leaving-leaving home |
|
Home-home, she's leaving home [Verse 2:] |
|
Paris, France, |
|
Spain and |
|
Milan Rides in |
|
Venice, staring at the stars |
|
Polaroid flicks and postcards in script |
|
Written to her family that she will dearly miss |
|
And the radio at night would play her favorite song |
|
Can't hardly wait, |
|
Westerberg has his charm |
|
Two weeks alone and one week in |
|
Prague Days turn to month and that's she want [Hook] [Verse 3:] |
|
They say home is where the heart is |
|
But what happens when you departing? |
|
Excuse me miss but please you'll have to pardon |
|
My behavior but |
|
I'm just getting started |
|
And I can say this with confidence |
|
Or use my common sense to state the obvious |
|
Beyond the compliments, we are the opposites |
|
Attracted to each other, magnets for a mess |
|
Wishing all the best but only getting stressed |
|
Staying for the sex and fighting bout the checks |
|
Issues addressed including your address |
|
You leaving home on a flight direct |
|
That I can't intersect but if |
|
I can interject |
|
It's not too late and |
|
I would just say |
|
That how we came together is a measure of fate |
|
But I guess it can wait as we pull up to the gate [Hook] |
