Lyrics
(v) you brought in another stray
keeps you away from
bad information
you tell me that I've turned strange
I keep my head down
from investigation
(c) could it fall to me?
could it fall to me?
could it fall to me
on some later date
when we run away?
(v) there's not another exit for miles
made my decision
at the kitchen table
it's easy being on the road
it's being at home
keeps me unstable
(c) could it fall to me?
could it fall to me?
could it fall to me
on some later date
when we run away?
(br) vitamins make you strong inside
where's the sin that you cannot hide
(v) can't make it go away
heard your divorce comes
down in december
a year for discretion sake
til you return to
what you remember
(c) could it fall to me?
could it fall to me?
could it fall to me
on some later date
when we run away?
