you keep your heartache in the basement

stored in boxes with the bones of lovers past

you still keep searching for replacements

try and find somebody just to fill the act

 

you and your tired eyes

i’ve seen it far too long from you

just stand with your alibi

and in time i’ll find my way to you

 

you’ll fall one of these times and

you’ll come out of your hiding

you’re gonna leave this town for good

you’ll get lost out there but

at least you’ll be somewhere and

the cards will fall as they should

 

well i seen you skipping stones across the water

goin’ back and forth to clear your mind

it’s been three long years you know

you sat me down, told me how you’d leave it all behind

you said that you don’t know the way

but you feel like one of these days you oughta go home

 

you’ll fall one of these times and

you’ll come out of your hiding

you’re gonna leave this town for good

you’ll get lost out there but

at least you’ll be somewhere and

the cards will fall as they should, oh

​

and you’ll fall one of these times and

you’ll come out of your hiding

you’re gonna leave this town for good

oh you’ll get lost out there but

at least you’ll be somewhere and

the cards will fall as they should
