Stay Away

I wanted to stay away

I’m telling you all, my friends

I wanted to stay away

Never could see this end

I wanted to stay away

I wanted to stay away

And never see what they call their own

I wanted to stay away

I wanted to rest here on my own

I wanted to stay away

Another disguise

In pictures of your family

Seem so good to me

And on this Fourth of July

And all their names escaping me

It’s a fleeting feeling

When all the leaves fall away

Leave you until the storm has ended

I want you to stay away

‘Til I find what it was I lost

I wanted to stay away

I wanted to stay away

(It’s a fleeting feeling)

I wanted to stay away

(It’s a fleeting feeling)

I wanted to stay away
