once upon a time but not no more
i find myself forgetting just how it was before
i hope if and when i'm around again that people understand
i would but i shouldn' t-i can't
she said i could meet her at the bar
it's as easy as hopping in and starting up a car
but oh, dear me, what if she asked to hold my hand?
i would but i shouldn' t-i can't
yet that don't stop my restless mind from wandering
- don't want to stay, gotta get away
i'm here right now but i just can't help wondering
- wanna leave today, gonna find a way
man, these crazy daydreams kinda get me down
back again in my hometown
maybe if i wished upon a star
by some miracle of fate i'd appear right where you are
but i've left bits of this broken heart scattered across the land
i would but i shouldn' t-i can't
uh oh, my future's looking rather either/or
what i do and with who is uncertain, that's for sure
i haven't quite finished formulating my master plan
i would but i shouldn' t-i can't
*
i recall a time when i had friends
oh, so sad-but that was long ago
and i guess things have changed
that's too bad-and she's still
counting down the days
three, two, one-but won't things be
much different then?
and what won't start my restless mind a-wandering?
-maybe you should stay, you always run away
to be satisfied and stop with all this wondering?
-you said that yesterday, you gotta find your way
it must be that old evil spirit so deep down in the ground
back again in my hometown
