She said I'm gonna get up and drive

I'll take the path along that river

Because I'm tired of all these late nights

I'm going somewhere I feel better

She said, maybe there's a place out there somewhere just for me

Or maybe it's just my sister's farm

Either way don't take it too personally, no

Don't let it bring you down

Grace, just because you're leaving

It doesn't mean that you ever go away

Grace, every time your leaving, a little more of you seems to stay

Around here, around here

She said I'll be here a little while longer

But don't go holding all your breath

I'm not going to sit by and watch the world die around you

No, I'm not going to waste my time on it

She's probably out there dancing somewhere right now

You know I like to think of it like that

And I'm wondering if you're feeling the same way too

Or if you're still thinking of dying

Grace, just because you're leaving

It doesn't mean that you ever go away

Grace, you're the ghost who haunts my kitchen

And it seems forever you will stay

Around here, around here

Maybe it's Just the silence that occupies the mind

When that feeling comes washing over her

But I still see her under a pale blue light

I keep a vision deep down in my soul for

Grace, just because you're leaving

It doesn't mean that you ever go away

Grace, every time your leaving, a little more of you seems to stay

Around here, around here
