There was freezing rain and a storm warning
I had to take off early in the morning
Trucks were passing and the cars were slowing
I tried to keep my nerves from showing... up
Saw you at the show last night, you said it sucked
You left early, for a meet up
These big cities and their beautiful colours
Pretty blue hues, but you're looking for fires
And I cried at the thought of losing you
Through truly there was no reason to
I cried when you left
I cried when you came home
I tried to move west
Your ghost never let me go
You seem so perfect at this time of year
The past is blurry but the future is clear
There's enough red flags to sail a ship
I hate to say it but I'd get on board pretty quick
Heard a story about while you traveling
Is it true you met someone just like me, but smiling?
Yea they say you met someone out on the surf
When you ask about me, do you listen to the answer?
And I cried at the thought of losing you
Through truly there was no reason to
I cried when you left
I cried when you came home
I tried to move west
Your ghost never let me go
I used to know where was here and gone
I used to know between weak and strong
I used to know who was right and wrong
I used to sing a different song
And I cried at the thought of losing you
Through truly there was no reason to
I cried when you left
I cried when you came home
I tried to move west
Your ghost never let me go
