What the hell was I thinkin' Comin' and livin' in the concrete canyon Trying to swim upstream in a river of vacant eyed people Where are they going so fast? What in the world could be that important? And I miss mama Wonder what she's doing Probably looking out that kichen window At the green grass and that clear sky Daddy's probably sneakin' up behind her Putting his hands around her waist Restin' his head on her shoulder Telling her how much he loves her That's what I ought to be doing with you right now. I find it hard breathe Without you next to me Gonna leave this phone hangin', I'm gone Before the sun goes down Gonna ditch this town Population minus, one. Oh yeah, I know what I was thinkin', I wasn't I came this close to making the biggest mistake of my life Is that a train I hear in the background? You're on the porch, aren't you? Got your head resting on that pillow on the swing Your bare feet propped up on those chain links Your toenails painted cotton candy pink, ah, man Let's see, smog or the smell of summer in your hair Yea, I'm outta here. I find it hard breathe Without you next to me Gonna leave this phone hangin', I'm gone Before the sun goes down Gonna ditch this town Population minus, one. Baby, I can't tell you how good it felt To roll back into this little map dot Seeing those sugar maples shading mainstreet And I never noticed it before but I smiled when I saw All those post game celebration. beer bottle dents In that deer crossing sign You know some of those were ours Kiss me, kiss me again. I find it hard breathe Without you next to me Gonna leave this phone hangin', I'm gone Before the sun goes down Gonna ditch this town Population minus, one. Just look at you and me Right where we need to be, Yeah...
