Queen Jane

(album: Retrospect - 2011)

It took me 17 days in the pouring rain and 2000 miles alone
Making my way through your kingdom on the wrong side of the road
Eating at service stations, sleeping in motel rooms
When I leave I'll miss some friends I made, but this time I won't miss you

No and I won't miss these gray skies
That hang over me like fate
Sometimes you think you need something new
Then you get it and it's just not the same

Goodbye rain, Goodbye Queen Jane
I'm going home to the Golden State to fix all of my mistakes
Goodbye rain, Goodbye Queen Jane

I ventured into this foreign land relying on the satellite
Just when you're lost at the roundabout, it tells you to go left or go right
But now l long for familiar roads when I know how to take the turns
I can't wait to get out of this place with all of my lessons learned

Goodbye rain, Goodbye Queen Jane
I'm going home, whatever the stakes, never's worse than late
Goodbye rain, Goodbye Queen Jane

I used to think I could love you
But you have proven me wrong
The only thing you've been right about
Is that we don't belong

Goodbye rain, Goodbye Queen Jane
Goodbye rain, Goodbye Queen Jane
Goodbye rain, Goodbye Queen Jane
