lyrics

Oh you're lyin' there so easily on my bed
I would've never thought I would see you again
But you're worried now. I know what you have to say.
"I'll be picking up my bags" Leaving just the same.

Honey you say I'm selfish, but you haven't left your own hometown for over 20 years.

Oh you're cursing my name almost every single day.
I would've always known this is where you're gonna stay.
But you're thinking hard, about leaving for the city
Could you quit your idle side. Your doin's are such a pity.
Girl you gotta move along. Just like I did when I dropped you then over several years ago

Could you stand to face life with no one to love?
I tried oh so hard to be the man you lost, then found.
Again it's a lost cause.

Oh you're driving down those same old dirty streets.
I've come to always know this where you're gonna be.
But I'm on my way out. I'm leaving Massachusetts.
Don't you think for a minute I loved you. Don't you think it.
Now I'm driving far away. You won't see me for another...
