Out of Here

I've been walking down the same old street
And all the people I meet are all the same
I've been driving round the same old town
But I will never go down a different street again
I gotta see all the world that's in front of me
No I won't waste it on the old
And I'm not sure in a year where I'm gonna be
But I know I will not be home, not be home oh no
Nothing you can do to sway me,
I'll take any job that could get me out of here
I'll write letters to all the millionaires
Maybe one of them has a ticket going spare
Cos I've been living in this bubble of a town
I don't think they know that the world is round instead of flat
I asked a man what he would do with his year
He said "I'll probably just stay here and read the news"
I gotta see all the world that's in front of me
No I won't waste it on the old
And I'm not sure in a year where I'm gonna be
But I know I will not be home, not be home oh no
I've seen New York, I've seen the Louvre and I've seen Rome
I've seen the Sistine Chapel painted by Michelangelo
I've seen the Med, I swam the seas and I've hoisted sails
But I stayed the same until the day that I came back
But all of the world, I'm sure will stay the same
If I left now, its only me to blame
Maybe home, of all the places left
Is where I'll start to find myself
Can a postcard say what I see in you now?
That you stand off in the biggest crowds to me?
Well there's too much crazy for one person in the world
But I'll share it all with you if you come and see
We'll be gone for so long, they'll line the streets
They'll throw palm leaves at our feet as we walk
I've been aching craving I feel so prepared
For some time that we can share out of here
I gotta see all the world that's in front of me
No I won't waste it on the old
And I'm not sure in a year where I'm gonna be
But I know I will not be home, not be home oh no
I gotta see all the world that's in front of me
No I won't waste it on the old
And I'm not sure in a year where I'm gonna be
But I know I will not be home, not be home oh no

One To Lose

We've been over this, more than she can list
The last chance saloon
But I could be somebody new,
Somebody she won't want to lose
Nothing left for me to do
It's so soon
It's so soon
It's so soon
It's so soon
I ran so fast the colours blurred, she said she'd stay till she had heard
If I could prove wrong all she knew
So I tried to be somebody new
Somebody she won't want to lose
Now there's nothing left for me to prove
It's so soon
It's so soon
It's so soon
It's so soon

Letters

How do I tell her, how much that I want her?
All her friends try to show her, that she could do better than me.
She thinks I'm complicated, I say "its underrated, I know that you can take me"
She sighs "let me take a minute", though her smile lets me know I'm winning
Her eyes say all I need to hear
Though she could do better,
I know that we were better than anything she'd ever had
I won't regret it no, because I read what she said
I read it her love letters
I read her love letters
Well she makes it easy, a ship on the sea when it's breezy
I think I found what I'm looking for, you know I wouldn't change it for any more
Well she says that "we're going steady"
I say that "I've been ready, for this for so long now"
I don't think that I even knew, of all the guys standing in the queue
That I even had a chance with her
Though she could do better,
I know that we were better than anything she'd ever had
I won't regret it no, because I read what she said
Though she could do better,
I know that we were better than anything she'd ever had
I won't regret it no, because I read what she said
Though she could do better,
We're the best thing she ever had,
And all she ever wanted was me,
way too much to ask
But when it's dark and you call and its pouring down with rain
I can be there I can share your pain
With all these burdens that I bear, no I'll never be the same
You should've stayed you should've stayed
Who's gonna be the one waiting at your door
When you're cold and you're lost, that was me before
Who's gonna be the one that you've been waiting for
You should've stayed, you should've stayed
Though she could do better,
I know that we were better than anything she'd ever had
I won't regret it no, because I read what she said
Though she could do better,
I know that we were better than anything she'd ever had
I won't regret it no, because I read what she said
I read her love letters
