Lyrics

Untie me, I've said no vows The train is getting way too loud I've gotta leave here, my girl, get on with my lonely life Just leave the ring on the rail for the wheels to nullify Until this turned in my head Let you stay and you paid no rent I spent 12 long months on the lam That's enough sitting on the fence for the fear of breaking dams I'd find a fatal flaw in the logic of love And go out of my head You love a sinking stone that'll never elope So get used to the lonesome, girl, you must atone some Don't leave me no phone numbers there La-di-da It took me all of a year to put the poison pill to your ear But now I stand on honest ground, on honest ground You wanna fight for this love But honey, you cannot wrestle a dove So baby, it's clear You want to jump and dance, but you sat on your hands And lost your only chance Go back to your hometown, get your feet on the ground And stop floating around I found a fatal flaw in the logic of love And went out of my head You love a sinking stone that'll never elope So get used to the lonesome, girl, you must atone some Don't leave me no phone number there, la-di-da
