Well I left my baby For a dream as lovely For a love that's only in books I've read
Then I hit the city Spent all my money I just left my whole life in a taxicab
Cause it's just a memory I can love completely When you're really with me I'm indifferent
But I tried to get my head clear It's too full of ideas That I haven't thought of yet
And the time clocks keep waving their hands Doin all that they can To get our attention But the days fly away down a clean interstate I'm staring drunk at a map
So I let my hair down for the second time now For the final time now I had my fun
But there's no returning from the places we've been Just repeat our slogan "Never again"
So you split Said you had to get out Headed back to the south Where everything's gentler
But i stay for a couple weeks more all the weather reports say there will be snow for sure but the storm moved away to a neighboring state I started the car
