Lyrics

Baby's going back to where she came from
Won't take her long to pack, she's lightened her load
And where he is tonight, it no longer matters
She'll just set her sights on the lights of the road

She leaves the bed unmade, takes a last look in the mirror
'Cause now she's not afraid to like what she sees
She knows he won't return to try and stop her
Won't let her see him yearn at the moment she leaves

She takes no remorse
with her out the door
She's setting a different course
As nobody's baby anymore

Her dollar's worth of change won't buy her back from lonely
but she's already paid with long, wasted days
With all her debts behind, the miles ahead are easy
This time she'll check the signs and look both ways

She takes no remorse with her out the door
She's setting a different course
As nobody's baby anymore

Baby's going back to where she came from
Won't take her long to pack, she's lightened her load
