Vancouver

[Verse 1]

She packed her bags and dressed

Long before the sunrise

No one knew

She told them many times

About how she would teach them

And now it's time

Standing quietly by the door

Her face is numb with fear

She stops and then goes on

"Leave forever, it's now or never"

[Verse 2]

Quickly walking down the street

It's cold and grey, dawn's breaking

She don't mind (She don't mind)

Why she feels so grown up now

Her life is just beginning

She don't know (She don't know)

She's standing in the pouring rain

Her make-up's running down

She wonders now she's here

"Where will I go? Who do I know?"

[Bridge]

Now, now she's not quite so sure

I may be wrong

But home seems so much more friendly now

And they might worry

But she doesn't want them to

'Cause causing pain

That's not the thing that she set out to do

[Verse 3]

So she's back in bed

Before anyone can miss her

She feels good (She feels good)

Knowing the chance was there

Deciding not to take it

That's her choice (That's her choice)

She's still awake, her mum comes in

"Me and dad, we've had a chat

And we're sorry for the things we said

Please forgive us, you wouldn't leave us?"
