Verse 1
She left her books, her car,
her clothes, and a note
But all she wrote was
"Tonight I'm leaving on a train"
She says she's headed west
To make it right for one more night
And, well, I don't blame her if she is
Refrain
But he thinks it's
just one more sunset
And after all, it's her fault
If she hasn't caught on yet
Chorus
So why'd you have to go?
Is there something I could
say to make you turn around?
Cause nights like these
I wish I'd said don't go
Is there anybody there?
Can anybody help to
get me out of here?
Cause you're walking
down a road that I can't go
(Repeat Last 4 Lines of Verse 1)
(Repeat Refrain)
(Repeat Chorus)
Brdige:
Shout as a martyr
Just can't handle this
I lost myself inside
a drunken kiss
And I, all that I wanted
was to walk you home
Save a sad song for
the sing-along
Oh my God, I
I lost myself inside
a drunken kiss
And I, all that I wanted
was to walk you home
Save a sad song for
the sing-along
Verse 2
And she thinks she'll
be my tourniquet
As the record on my stereo
Plays her favorite song
for two whole days
And the drag streched
out for miles and miles
And what she'd give
for one more smile
And how she hoped
he missed her
Cause, God, she missed
(hold)
how he would kiss her
Chorus 2
So why'd you have to go?
Is there something I could
say to make you turn around?
Cause nights like these
I wish I'd said don't go
Is there anybody there?
Can anybody help to
get me out of here?
Cause you're walking
down a road that I can't go
(Repeat)
