I'm just gonna leave this city pining
For the man it thinks I used to be
You knew I was never one for perfect timing
Then again you never spent much time with me
I was westbound as they come these days without a broken heart
'Cause out there they say it sure knows how to rain
I ain't never seen sunshine quite so stubborn in its art
I ain't seen the light since you up and went away
I ain't ever seen skies like this
Every bird's singin me your name
Your love I'm glad I did not miss
But now the thought of you's just bringin my skies rain
The thought of you's just bringing my skies rain
In two days I'll be leavin for that west coast
In three days I'll tell myself that I was wrong
As it seems you were the one that I loved most
It turns out you're the only thing that's gone
The last time that I saw you, you were with me
Last time that we spoke I slept alone
Yeah but I'm gonna make those mountains by morning
Here's hoping ocean air might cleanse my weary bones
I ain't ever seen skies like this
Every bird's singin me your name
Your love I'm glad I did not miss
But now the thought of you's just bringin my skies rain
The thought of you's just bringing my skies rain
I've found myself where those rivers they run slowly
'Cause those eastbound trains they always move too fast
I've never been quite so close to lonely
I ain't never been such a strange shade of sad
I ain't ever seen skies like this
Every bird's singin me your name
Your love I'm glad I did not miss
But now the thought of you's just bringin my skies rain
The thought of you's just bringing my skies rain
