You couldn't get what you were after After all was said and done Amid the echoes of the screams and the laughter Cracking the blinds to the noonday sun Running out of room, tugging at the tether Old desires on the closet shelf You read between the lines until the lines ran together Somehow had to save yourself
chorus 'Cause it don't come back once it's gone Now you wonder why you had to wait so long Wasn't no sense being where you don't belong Got to save yourself
Now your bad boy runs you ragged But the nice guy bores you flat to tears He sends you flowers and birthday cards He tries so hard and he's out of here 'Cause it's all you can handle just to stay okay You don't need nobody's pain You've got no room for baggage Passengers must now de-plane
chorus 'Cause it don't come back once it's gone Now you wonder why you had to wait so long Wasn't no sense being where you don't belong Got to save yourself
Your new job keeps you busy The old car runs alright The hot wind off the concrete Sometimes keeps you up at night The lights go off in the building And you're sitting there alone 'Cause the girls and boys you run with Have all up and gone home So you're sifting through the ashes Getting way down dark and deep You've got your life all figured out But you still don't get much sleep
chorus 'Cause it don't come back once it's gone Now you wonder why you had to wait so long Wasn't no sense being where you don't belong Got to save yourselfTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
