Lyrics

[00:13.360] Leaving isn't quite the same
[00:16.920] He said to me
[00:18.670] As running away
[00:26.940] If you're scared or tired of
[00:29.600] What you're scared of
[00:32.090] Well, why should you stay
[00:36.150]
[00:41.570] He loved to say goodbye
[00:48.420] And always counted out the time
[00:55.800] Until he was free
[01:00.040] To get up and leave
[01:03.410] To learn how to breathe
[01:11.960] Again
[01:15.080]
[01:25.870] Slipping out to have a cigarette
[01:28.930] With someone else that he'd never met
[01:39.350] Asks her if by the way
[01:42.590] Would she like to run away
[01:47.650] And try to forget
[01:57.820] Or just not to stay
[02:03.250]
[02:04.750] To leave without saying why
[02:11.670] To get up and go
[02:15.040] To catch the last train
[02:18.480] To get in some car
[02:21.600] And drive out again
[02:25.280] To never come back this way
[02:30.460] And have to say
[02:34.320]
[02:36.380] Goodbye
[02:38.320]
[02:39.180] So alone
[02:42.450] Feel well
[02:46.110] Over
[02:47.610]
[02:49.550] Goodbye
[02:51.000]
[02:52.750] So alone
[02:55.430] Feel well
[02:59.420] Over
[03:01.940]
[03:02.660] Goodbye
[03:03.640]
[03:06.350] So alone
[03:10.330] Feel well
[03:13.720] Over
