I'm old and
Got that same old feeling
Back again
You keep coming back to me
It seems there's no escape
(i've got this god damn feeling from day to day)
Now i'm going to follow the world
And i don't know if i care anymore
Now i'm going to follow the world
And i don't know if i care anymore
I wish that i could leave this town
And go somewhere you're not around.
Yeah yeah, oh yeah
I wish i could leave this town
And go somewhere, where you're not around
Yeah yeah, oh yeah
Now looking back
On the time we spent over that move this year
I drunk at
When we met
Oh how i got so far and
Your hand does not regret
But a different way of looking at it
I should have left alone
I want you home and let the stress out
I wish i could leave this town
And go somewhere you're not around
Yeah yeah, oh yeah
I wish i could leave this town
And go somewhere you're not around
Yeah yeah, oh yeah
I wish i could leave this town
And go somewhere you're not around
Yeah yeah, oh yeah
