Verse 1] That upright piano, always slightly out of tune And that picture of my parents on their wedding day in June All the scuff marks peeling the paint off Where posters hung and more As I wave goodbye to the monsters under my bed And the ghosts in the hall I'll probably see you at Christmas You know I'm gonna miss ya
[Chorus] I got a long haul drive and I'm trying to pack light But you can't pack a life in a Samsonite I got waterfall tears after eighteen years You can't wait to leave 'til it's time to go And you don't know how much a house can hold 'Til you leave the household
[Verse 2] That window in my bedroom that I snuck out once or twice And the placemats on the table where we'd laugh and talk and fight All the dates on the doorframe mark every birthday Look how we've grown up When Mama cries, Daddy checks the tires 'Cause that's how they show love [Chorus] I got a long haul drive and I'm trying to pack light But you can't pack a life in a Samsonite I got waterfall tears after eighteen years You can't wait to leave 'til it's time to go And you don't know how much a house can hold 'Til you leave the household
[Bridge] If they made a box or a U-Haul big enough To fit all the bricks and the bones inside You can bet I'd be thinking about it every mile and every mile
[Chorus] Of this long haul drive I'm trying to pack light But you can't pack a life in a Samsonite I got waterfall tears after eighteen years You can't wait to leave 'til it's time to go And you don't know how much a house can hold 'Til you leave the household 'Til you leave the householdTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
