You never liked this place where we'd been living all alone
So you packed up your things and bought a one-way ticket home
And leaving never hurts as much as being left behind

Chorus:
    I would change my life

I have spent my money on some foolish-hearted things
I have spent my memories on old and ? wine

Birds are flying south
To spend the wintertime
The skies are turning blue to grey
The fire we started here

I wish that I could say the things you needed for so long
I wish that you could see me now, maybe then you'd find
