Told her all I'll ever want and all I'll ever need
Is just enough to make me leave
I can' tell when the magic fades and there's nothing up my sleeve
But it's hard to know I believe, oh

Chorus
She waits
And I pretend that I'm not coming back
She waits
For me to find my way back home again
She waits
I never thought she would
She waits

Tell her that I've been in love but I've never had a friend
I'm always starting at the end
Better that I leave this place than break apart a home
How much can I hurt if I'm on my own

Chorus

[guitar break]

Chorus

...for good
