She calls early in the morning about money that I might have spent It's a cla**ic case of I dont know where it went I want this to read like a letter And I want it to ring like a phrase Somewhere out in the road as the sky's last light burns away You call I write I may answer I many never send anything Youll leave and you'll go It's alright if we dont remember Did I say I'd stay What if I was wrong? I'll be out in the road before you know that Ive gone I'll be out in the road before you know that I've gone
And I'm tired of reflection and warning Keeping myself at the centre of it all We lie out of boredom Just to stall the inevitable You're waking in bed I light a candle you said You were leaving before the sun And what does it mean to mean something and never get anything done? I lie in wait for the better part of the day To be out in the road as the skys last light burns away To be out in the road as the sky's last light burns away To be out in the road as the sky's last light burns away
