you left town yesterday
said you had to get away
at least for a while, you said
had to try and clear your head

there are so many things i could have said
so i just kissed you goodbye instead

left town that same rainy afternoon
to hide from the thought of you
doing everything to make sure you’re ok
even though it meant staying away

there were so many things still to be said
so i just said goodbye instead

put on the recordings of that night at liam’s just to hear your voice
while i sat at the diner waiting to hear your choice
to remind me any of this was ever real
to remember a time when i could feel

i don’t want to remember what you said
so i just got out of my mind instead
