Getting High in Dubai - She Said Lyrics

She said it's for the best
My love's not like the rest
She said I'm getting out
Moving on without a doubt
She said I don't feel young
I still have songs unsung
City life has worn me down
Princess with a plastic crown

She said I'm leaving
No Point in grieving
She said I found myself
And won't be engulfed
Shaking but still standing
Outside it's raining
Our roads have split apart
Won't let life break my heart

In myself I feel whole
Taking back what he stole
She said I sold all my things
And his engagement ring
Left worthless promises
Tone deaf to outside forces

She said New York is over
The lies of four leaf clovers
Empty of any excuse
It's more than the abuse
Sick of all the sorrys
I'm my own woman not a mommy

She said I'm leaving him
It's either sink or swim
Because I've found my power
Sweet fruit it always turns sour
Once afraid to fly solo
Balled up armadillo
Became miniature
I'm not that girl who was once unsure

She said I've got to catch this plane
This isn't about the blame
She said I'm leaving
There's no point in grieving
She said you know I'm scared
She said nothing can be repaired
She said her goodbyes
All the way to the airport she cried
