When I'm Back Home

from Giant Leap Year by Michael Vickers

/

lyrics

I knew as soon as that blue lagoon got passed my way it’d be a mistake to stay But I'm not one to stray its true,
Still when I got given it I knew
And after that I had to ask what else was left in store
Because I cant take anymore

I swore to everyone I saw that day; I’d leave before it got too late
I left my suitcase on the train and that’s the last time ill drink with you
You promised me next time your services
You haven’t told the truth in years,
You always blackmailed me with beers
But when I'm back home I think of you

I told my self ‘one more won’t hurt’ and turned around and you’d deserted me and I was all out of change and luck and dignity
But at the time it probably felt like I was fresh and clean
And when it came to standing up I prayed someone would help me up
And say they knew the way

I swore to everyone I saw that day; I’d leave before it got too late
I left my suitcase on the train and that’s the last time ill drink with you
You promised me next time your services
You haven’t told the truth in years, you always blackmailed me with beers
Still when I'm back home I think of you

It’s true; I swore I'd leave before it got too late
But you have always enjoyed scheduling my day

I swore to everyone I saw that day; I’d leave before it got too late
I left my suitcase on the train and that’s the last time ill drink with you
You promised me next time your services
You haven’t told the truth in years, you always blackmailed me with beers
Still when I'm back home I think of you
