I wake up to see you've got your bags packed
You're heading out of town
You've got another chance
So take one more shot again
If only I could have a moment longer to make myself ready
To know you'll be gone awhile, maybe I wouldn't cry
She says, "you know how this will be"
This is how things will go
Now that you're gone, I spend my day looking for the things you left behind
Writing these letters I'm never really going to send
I've been sitting in the garden that you planted the last time you were home
I guess I should tell you the roses are about to bloom
You think that we'll all be the same
Now I can't seem to find the words to make it better and turn it all around
Now you've found your way home, you're feeling that you're safe and sound
In every corner there's a smile and a promise that sometimes ends up broken
I shouldn't really wonder-- she warned me that's how things will be
Well, that's fine with me.
She says you give love easily
But save none for yourself
