Home by the river

I think it's time now
All the sings are there
Time to jump on a plane, run away
I lost my smile now
It's here on the floor somewhere
Sometimes it's just too dangerous to say
Just a little line on a map somewhere
Just a great divide through the heart of this town
Just a little water beneath this bridge
Flick a cigarette, and as it's floating down
My life turns around, because
I'm leaving my home by the river
In this Broken Heart Town
Because I've given her all I can give her
Now I must fly
It gets so cold here
So hard to find your friends
Endless whirpool, this place is the drain
Makes you wonder why I wait until the end
Why I seem so attached to my pain
Just a little line on a map somewhere
Just a great divide through the heart of this town
Just a little water beneath this bridge
Flick a cigarette, and as it's floating down
My life turns around, because
I'm leaving my home by the river
In this Broken Heart Town
Because I've given her all I can give her
Now I must fly
I spend days wasted away
No one to look for, nothing to say
And I open myself wide, nothing to hide
Cos deep down I know I'll back here in time
I think is time now
Time to jump on a plane run away
From this place I love I've had enough
I'm leaving my home by the river
In this Broken Heart Town
Because I've given her all I can give her
Now I must fly
