Stay Gone (Deluxe Edition Bonus Track)

(album: Lucky Street - 2011)

Just in case, not just in time
I don't have to make it out of here alive
I know I'll try for the rest of my life to make it up to you
If they're alright then I'm insane
To ever want to walk through all of this again
So what's a couple bottles of wine between me and the fall?

You can assume that I am here and on my own
You can assume I figured out the road's too short to walk alone
Now I can't do it by myself, you know I won't
She said "You're better off in New York, stay gone"

I don't wanna stay gone

Just in case, not just in time
No I was never really over this, I find
That I was content to spend the rest of all my life to take a final breath for you
To leave a memory of drinking and desire
A storyboard that ruptures to detect the fire
Could that have been a better motion to claim about a heart soaked in shame?

You can assume that I am here and on my own
You can assume I figured out the road's too short to walk alone
Now I can't do it by myself, you know I won't
She said "You're better off in Boston, stay gone"
Oh but I don't wanna stay gone too long

Just in case, found out in time
I've been up here all alone and I've been blind
I finally got a couple of songs that you'd sing along

You can assume that I am here and on my own
You can assume I figured out the road's too short to walk alone
Now I can't do it by myself, you know I won't
She said "You're better off ... you're better off, stay gone"
She said "Don't come back to Florida, babe, stay gone"
Said "We don't need you back in Florida, stay gone"

"Stay gone"
