Leaving Town

Oh, your reputations so golden
Youre never lonely and youre never home
I know youve been talking about leaving
Youve lost all your feeling for this town
Paint your nails and put on your lipstick
You dont want to miss your ticket out
Just because you graduate from school so high in the gene pool, thats your point of view

But when youre broken down and no one else is around
Youll come running back to this town and Ill be there, yeah Ill 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
Youre 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 youre broken down and no one else is around
Youll come running back to this town and Ill be there, yeah Ill 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
Doesnt mean it has to be that hard
I know you will find out who you are...
But when youre broken down and no one else is around
Youll come running back to this town and Ill be there, yeah Ill 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
