You walked away to see what's out there You left your home to follow through on a dream Don't matter what you had to offer They'd only take it if you give it for free It goes on and on this highway Driving all night to find a place you could sleep You felt that cold wind when it howled It's so hard when you can't get no relief You once told me my darling "You had enough and you could just scream" They go on and on our memories Heavy is my heart when they stay too long Will they ever fade If you're gone too long You'll be back here soon When there's nothing new left to talk about You'll be back here soon Once you tell myself that you stuck it out I saw your heartache with the lights down You ain't bold because you ain't got no belief I'll tell you again, my darling Their jokes tell you what exactly they mean What they mean They go on and on our memories Heavy is my heart when they stay too long Will it ever fade I keep holding on You'll be back here soon When there's nothing new left to talk about You'll be back here soon Once you can tell yourself that you stuck it out Out of all the times it starts to rain The ones who stay are the ones who know That you'll be back here soon You'll be back here soon
