Lyrics

I heard you were broken baby
back in town from upstate
driving a new black Mercedes
looking for a chance to regain

your reflection in the mirror
Leave all connections at the door
Get lost riding on the train
This time you won't refrain

You keep sobbing in your dreams
running without movin'
from the man holding out a hefty sum
We all need to be warm and safe
That's not how you lose it
I just think you let it get away

Ah ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah ah

I heard you were a wilted daisy
trying to stay off the wall
back with the movers and the latelys
reaching for the racks at the mall

You keep buying into the things
That's not really choosin'
looking to be validated some
We all want to be warm and safe
That's not how you lose it
I just think you let it get away

Ah ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah ah

I heard you were broken baby
back in town from upstate

You don't know where you'll be
when you finally prove it
There's always more time when you're on the run
We're all going the same way
That's not how you lose it
I just think you let it get away
Yeah, I just think you let it get away
