Sweeping up plaster, Mopping the floor Washing the windows Cleaning the closets Closing the door, Filling the cracks out in the hall Scraping the paint off of the wall Changing the lock, Turning the key Letting you go away from me Knowing it's better here in my head Doing the laundry Washing the dishes, Making the bed Nothing to fight, Nothing to choose Maybe it's good learning to lose Maybe I'll shine finally free Letting you go away from me If I was smart, If I was strong If I could just say I was wrong Say it was me, Say I could move Make you believe these things improve Would I forget all of the cracks Deep in the ground under our tracks And if I go then would you see Or would you go away ~ Would you go away Facing the facts, Watching the clock Maybe you'll change just down the block And if you did where would I be Letting you go away from me
