if you didn't go

if you didn't go away

i would have never had to say

goodbye to the things that made me find

you're someone who had me for all of my time

if i had the chance to make it up to you

and if i knew it'd change all that i can't undo

someplace inside this foggy head i got

float three words i never really said a lot

if you didn't go away

i would have never had to say

goodbye to the things that made me find

you're someone who had me for all of my time

now that you're a stranger two thousand miles from here

i imagine you the blanket

my atmosphere

even though the girl you got is a nice one

it's true

she'll never be what i have to give if i still had you

if you didn't go away

i would have never had to say

goodbye to the things that made me find

you're someone who had me for all of my time

i can't complain

you rest somewhere in my mind

you're like my faded coffee stain

a cassette plays back 'til tape runs out

you feed my reel

and then you wear me out

quiet as the days are long

i looked for you

i wrote your wrong

if you didn't go away

i would have never had to say

goodbye to the things that made me find

you're someone who had me for all of my time

i bet that california don't got sunshine quite like

the florida beach after three o'clock rain when you're on your bike

tip my cup to you for finding a way to the stars

and i wanna shine for the moon and the skies that used to be ours

if you didn't go away

i would have never had to say

goodbye to the things that made me find

you're someone who had me for all of my time

if you didn't go away

i would have never had to say

goodbye to the things that made me find

you're someone who had me for all of my time
