I've been down this road before I walk out the door Leave you on the floor Sometimes you run and hide Your foolish prides What keeps me from giving you more [Chorus] So the best thing I can give to you Is for me to go Leave you alone Cause you got growin' up to do Some day I'll return when it's time For payment in kind The church bells'll chime
You'll stand before me surrounded by lights Dressed in white You'll throw flowers in the air This night [Chorus] Looks like the rain's pouring down on me It's drowning me now All I want is to come back home This old corduroy coat It's not keeping me dry But I can't think of what else to try [Chorus: x2]
