Out of Here 04:54
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 02:43
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 04:58
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
