She left her books, her car, her clothes, and a note

But all she wrote was, "Tonight I'm leaving on a train."

She says she's headed west

To make it right for one more night

And, well, I don't blame her if she is

But he thinks it's just one more sunset

And after all, it's her fault

If she hasn't caught on yet



So why'd you have to go?

Is there something I could say to make you turn around?

Cause nights like these I wish I'd said don't go

Is there anybody there?

Can anybody help to get me out of here?

Cause you're walking down a road that I can't go



She says she's headed west

To make it right for one more night

And, well, I don't blame her if she is

But he thinks it's just one more sunset

And after all, it's her fault

If she hasn't caught on yet



So why'd you have to go?

Is there something I could say to make you turn around?

Cause nights like these I wish I'd said don't go

Is there anybody there?

Can anybody help to get me out of here?

Cause you're walking down a road that I can't go



Try as I might

Just can't handle this

I lost myself inside a drunken kiss

And I, all that I wanted was to walk you home

Save a sad song for the sing-along

Oh my God, I just can't handle this

I lost myself inside a drunken kiss

And I, all that I wanted was to walk you home

Save a sad song for the sing-along



And she thinks she'll be my tourniquet

As the record on my stereo

Plays her favorite song for two whole days

And the drag stretched out for miles and miles

And what she'd give for one more smile

And how she hoped he missed her

Cause, God, she missed how he would kiss her



So why'd you have to go?

Is there something I could say to make you turn around?

Cause you're walking down a road that I can't go

Yeah, you're walking down a road that I can't go

Yeah, you're walking down a road that I can't
