Away, away, away with this robin's nest And all the tears you shed you'll soon forget Just don't leave us left behind on the right side of the mind you've set And away, away, away with this old news 'Cause nothing ever came from what I thought that I knew Just don't tell me that it shows through my fear of animals And I wonder if I left for good would you get lost in someone else? Would you hang me up on a shelf and cry for yourself? And i say these words 'cause I never could get caught up in myself 'Cause a heart needs another heart to settle And away, away, away with this old news, 'cause nothing ever came from what I thought that I knew A little love can go so far these days It's about time we stopped lying about this Just don't sell yourself short this time, my dear
