Dear, don't be alarmed
As I trace the freckles on your porcelain arms
Did you ever think you'd be victim to charm
So cheap and untrue

How did you think you'd get off
Pass me with a smile while you're walking your dog
And now I can't sleep 'cause I know that you're gone
And you know what you do

Dear, did you know that our days were numbered
A long time ago
Can't turn back now 'cause I swore it was done
When you walked out the door
Thinking I'd like to say goodbye to you just this once more
But I know, it wouldn't be the same as before

Boy I hear she's the one
Crazy how fast you knew once we were done
And now that this speckle bird's started to run
It won't ever come home

Tie myself to this room
So I can't return to my comfortable you
Forget this whole town that reminds me of you
And I won't go home
