Monday beneath an awning she takes a drag from a cigarette
And it's 9:30am in Seattle, she's getting tired of an indigent
Boy who feels like he's just given up and it breaks her heart to know
That she can't go home when she feels like picking up the pieces
There's reasons that she don't wanna go like
The way he looked when he gave a note to tell her goodbye
And it read...
Wherever you go, wherever you follow your heart
I just can't be apart from you
Even if that means I'd have to spend eternity by myself
It wouldn't be the same with somebody else
Her life fits in a suitcase, a rainy day and a plastic smile
When she looks down at her phone and a missed call
She hasn't heard from him in a while
Of all the things she could have given up, and it breaks her heart to know
That she can't go home when she feels like picking up the pieces
There's reasons that she don't wanna go like
The way he looked when he gave a note to tell her goodbye
And it read...
Wherever you go, wherever you follow your heart
I just can't be apart from you
Even if that means I'd have to spend eternity by myself
It wouldn't be the same with somebody else
Hurts too damned bad to say goodbye
But it hurts too bad to stay and try
And of all the days he picked to dial she didn't answer
Said this world's not good enough
Without you I'm giving up
Now I feel like picking up and leaving this place behind
He's sleeping, she's creeping up through an unlocked back door
And wakes him up with a kiss, she's never wanted him more
And she said...
Wherever you go, wherever you follow your heart
I just can't be apart from you
Even if that means I'd have to spend eternity by myself
It wouldn't be the same with somebody else
