i wouldn't like to leave her

but i gotta go

take my guitar and a sleeping bag

step from that door

and she won't try to stop me

'coz she knows me too well

will you look out for her while i'm gone?



she knows, this is what i do

i gotta get up, get up, get up

or i fall down



where'd you go

when the lights go out

and how do you know

when evening falls so hard on you

i'm coming home



yeah it keeps me together

but it keeps us apart

i know it doesn't make it alright

but you knew it from the very start

i sometimes forget to call you

but i never forget the songs

but please don't forget me while i'm gone



she knows, this is what i do

i gotta get up, get up, get up

or i fall down



where'd you go

when the lights go out

and how do you know

what it's all about

where'd you go

when the lights go out

and how do you know

when evening falls so hard on you

i'm coming home
