1
I couldn't stand another second in your room staring
2
At the easy gestures of your wrist spreading perfume sparingly
3
Behind the ears and across the neck I once studied so carefully
4
It had been too long
5
It had been too long
6
It had been too long since I had watched you move
7
I had to cut out for some fresh air on the landing
8
But I got nothing but the smell of rotten fruit rising up from the alley
9
Suddenly I realized I wasn't young anymore and I was still hiding out from your daddy
10
I had spent so long
11
I had spent so long
12
I had spent so long loving you
13
My mother built her name on getting out of sorry situations
14
My father bought a piece of land he didn't care to ever stray from
15
And I was the very worst kind of cool combination
16
I wanted to stay
17
I wanted to stay
18
I wanted to stay but I always go
19
I don't know if I can go and drink with you on Saturday
20
I've been dizzy inside this dirty window since that last time you walked away
21
Well the cars and trucks bolt and fizzle like fireworks on the freeway
22
But I wonder where they go
23
I wonder where they go
24
I wonder where they go to explode
25
You and me I guess we were just born to be free Sally
26
Well that's the kind of think you say when you lose your grip on something
27
I pushed my way this far but now I don't know how to stop running
28
And I can't stand still
29
I can't stand still
30
I can't stand still and follow you
31
I don't mind losing everything that I lived for once
32
The earth spins for seventy-five cents down at the local laundromat
33
Well Chris says you've got to lose your head something to save your neck
34
So Sally go on
35
Sally go on
36
Sally go on and that's just what I'll do
