Lyrics
And for once in my lifetime
I will strike out for daylight
And I will see if the sunrise is all they say
And I will stake all my tomorrows
on a coat that I borrowed
And a chance for a little time alone today
And I have been out on the road
with no place to go
And the pavement?s not much of a home
But the sky?s looking blue
time to make my words the truth
And I?ll leave my goodbyes in a song
And don't try to follow
But I know now, you never saw me go
If I say it, once out loud, then I know I?ll be free
One more light out of town, and for miles I can see
And I know I could tell you
anything you want me too
But you know that still won?t make you the one
And I?ve been stuck in this hotel
for as long as I can tell
But it feels like checkout?s coming on
And don't try to stop me
But I know now, you never heard me speak
And if I say it once out loud, then I know I'll be free
One more light out of town, and for miles I can see
And I will stake all my tomorrows
On a coat that I borrowed
And a chance to buy back yesterday
And don't try to change me
Cause you know I'm not what you want
If I say it once out loud, then I know I'll be free
One more light out of town, and for miles I can see
Say goodbye to me
