Lyrics
I slipped out the back door
When I should have been running for the front
I caught a glimpse of your eyes and I didn't know what to say
Didn't know what to do, didn't know where to run
Chorus
Snap my fingers and disappear
I'd rather be anywhere but here
Gonna snap my fingers and disappear
You were embarrassed riding shotgun
In my pickup truck painted primer gray
And these memories of you ringin' in my head,
Why can't they just go away?
Snap my fingers and disappear
I'd rather be anywhere but here
Gonna snap my fingers and disappear
Bridge
How can you sit there and smile
With all that grace and style
How can you break my heart in so many pieces
And not even blink an eye?
And now the world's gone wrong and my head hurts
And the hands on the clock are lost in time
I think I'll head down south to Zihuatanejo
And leave the world and you far behind
Snap my fingers and disappear
I'd rather be anywhere but here
Gonna snap my fingers and disappear
Disappear
