"You don't even try to listen to me
I've been calling every day and every night for a week
I know you're on the road, but maybe once a week at least?"
"I swear I don't see it ring, and can I please get a pass?
I'm in a van goin' a month now with my head in my ass
I know I said I'd do better this time
I know I said I'd try"
I know I said I'd try
This summer we watched the leaves change
From behind tinted windows
And the longer we stay
The faster it'll get old
I remember from the back of the Chevy
You taking Alligator Alley doin' 77
You looked at me and said you never wanted this to end
And now you're crying on a curb outside a CVS
In the middle of Missouri and you're holding a test
"Is it really all my fault?
Oh, is this happening again?"
Is it happening again?
This summer we watched the leaves change
From behind tinted windows
And the longer we stay
The harder it'll get, oh
But it's part of the game
They're the sharks and we're the minnows
And it's easy to play
But there never is a winner, oh
For Christmas Eve, I'll make a big plan
Then I'll spend it in a black Dodge Caravan
You'll get a "happy birthday" and a call on the phone, oh
But chances are you're probably gonna spend it alone
For Christmas Eve, I'll make a big plan
Then I'll spend it in a black Dodge Caravan
You'll get a "happy birthday" and a call on the phone, oh
But chances are you're probably gonna spend it alone
'Cause I'm gone
I'm gone
I'm always gone
And there never is a winner, oh
