I heard you may be leaving town

Why did that not surprise me

Flying away to who knows where

Leaving all your lies here

 

You sent me a postcard, made of your memories

As long as you’re moving, you don’t have to explain

One less road to travel along, and one more prize for you 

 

Was it something I said, that I missed now you’ve gone away

Did I not see the signs, was it something I didn’t say

One reason to leave, one thing that I’ll never know

No reason to stay, no more you and yesterday

 

You talked of places you hadn’t seen

As though they missed your presence

Waiting to share all that you knew

Adding to your experience

 

You sent me a postcard, made of your memories

As long as you’re moving, you don’t have to explain

One less road to travel along, and one more prize for you 

 

Was it something I said, that I missed now you’ve gone away

Did I not see the signs, was it something I didn’t say

One reason to leave, one thing that I’ll never know

No reason to stay, no more you and yesterday

 

I’m sure you’ve had lots of things, to keep you amused

I bet you had it all planned out, yeah it’s all about you

 

Was it something I said, that I missed now you’ve gone away

Did I not see the signs, was it something I didn’t say

One reason to leave, one thing that I’ll never know

No reason to stay, no more you and yesterday

 

I heard you may be leaving town
