Won't be long before the sky gives way
And the world comes alive again
I been awake all night,
Praying I don't mess this up and then
I brush if off,
Cant think too much
I'm outta here by noon today.
So I get my stuff,
I don't bring too much,
I wont need it anyway.
Here goes nothing,
I'll leave my keys by the door.
I'm settled on something,
Worth leaving for.
Just my reflection,
On an empty floor.
And then once more, I'm gone.
You called me but a few months later
Said 'man its not like it used to be"
People are comin' up to you
Askin' what did ever come of me
Well my friend,
This is not the end.
And I'm sorry that you feel that way.
Some time from now,
We will meet again.
But you knew I wouldn't stay.
(CHORUS)
Wont be long before the sky gives way
And the world comes alive again.
Cant remember feeling this at home,
At home since God's knows when.
Well my friend,
Its like I said,
I'm sorry that you feel that way.
Some time from now,
We'll meet again.
But this is where I'm gonna stay.
