Oh, your reputations so golden   You're never lonely and you're never home   I know you've been talking 'bout leaving   You've lost all your feelings for this town   Paint your nails and put on your lipstick   You don't want to miss your ticket out   Just because you graduate   From school so high in the   Gene pool, thats your point of view      But when you're broken down   And no one else is around   You'll come running back to this town,   And I'll be there, yeah I'll be there      'Cause I remember how we drank time together   And how you used to say that the stars are forever   And day dreamed about how to make your life better   By leaving town, leaving town      Pack your bags, your smokes in your pocket   You're wearing my locket around your neck   Take a drag and wait for the Greyhound   The world is your playground, and you oughta win   But when you're broken down, and no one   Else is around, you'll come running back to this   Town, and I'll be there, yeah, I'll be there      Cause I remember how we drank time together,   And how you used to say that the stars are forever   And day dreamed about how to make your life better   By leaving town, leaving town      Nothing in life will ever come that easy   Doesn't mean it has to be that hard   I know you will find out who you are.....   But when you're broken down, and no one else   Is around, you'll come running back to this town   And I'll be there, yeah, I'll be there      'Cause I remember how we drank time together,   And how you used to say that the stars are forever,   And day dreamed about how to make your   Life better, by leaving town, leaving town   repeat 2x      My love,   you're leaving town,   yeah
