it happened in an instant
the midnight voices got through
you were feeling fenced in
you grabbed a change of clothes and your best shoes
did you even pack a single photograph of me
one little memory
you thought it would be easy
maybe it was for you
i watched you walk away
i still don't know why
i guess you were running
and from my windowpane i started to cry
and if there's a single sound i'll never forget
it's your engine rumbling
wish you'd seen the mess that you made
with your clean getaway
standing in the hallway
i hear the echo of your footsteps
blue eyes and your last name
are the only things that you left
are we still a family
did you ever love me
were you ever happy
doubt i'll ever know
hope you find what you're looking for
i watched you walk away
i still don't know why
i guess you were running
and from my windowpane i started to cry
and if there's a single sound i'll never forget
it's your engine rumbling
wish you'd seen the mess that you made
with your clean getaway
when i grow up
i'll never be like you
when i grow up
i'll never be like you like you
cause i watched you walk away
i still don't know why
and from my windowpane i started to cry
and if there's a single sound i'll never forget
it's your engine rumbling
i wish you'd seen the mess that you made
i wish you'd seen the mess that you made
i wish you'd seen the mess that you made
with your clean getaway
