Tom Mcrae - Got a Suitcase, Got Regrets lyrics

Change the locks on the door Put out the light in the hall I do not live here anymore Put the world in a box Turn the sign to the street Aim for where the horizon and blue skies meet But all I know is I'm not ready yet For the light to dim Got a suitcase, got regrets But I'm hopeful yet I've been a gifted thief Stole everything for the cause I never had fingers as light as yours So wake up pretty girl See the hope in small things Disappointment can wear you thin But all I know is I'm not ready yet For the light to dim Got a suitcase, got regrets But I'm hopeful yet And I'll raise this gla** of wine And I'll say your name So let's be k**ers babe Make the great escape From all the bitter words Of every crowded street and empty heart It's Christmas day Brooklyn in the rain But I am safe inside a better world of hope and memory Drunk on velvet wine The Southern Cross for light Deal your cards and hope that I can play a better hand this time
