It happened on the day she spoke too soon I'd gone before but only left the room Oh no, please don't It happened on the day she spoke too soon I'd gone before but only left the room Oh no, please don't Before I leave, I think I'll steal a kiss Wear your memory upon my lips Goodbye, I'll write Kept me chained up here for far too long My trusty guitar and a travellin' song Is all I want If you were to turn away There's nothing left for me to say I've made my hell and now For once, I'm feeling brave somehow I think I'm finally on my way I survived another sleepless night A full moon blanket and the sheets pulled tight All doom and gloom Tried to skip takin' the long way around An empty shortcut's the only thing I found I know you know Break my back another day 'Cause this one's far too blue to stay Give me half a chance To bounce right back from circumstance I think I'm finally on my way
