Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Can't seem to get my mind off of you

Back here at home there's nothin' to do

Now that I'm away

I wish I'd stayed

Tomorrow's a day of mine that you won't be in

[Verse 2]

When you looked at me, I should have run

But I thought it was just for fun

I see I was wrong

And I'm not so strong

I should have known all along that time would tell

[PreChorus]

A week without you

Thought I'd forget

Two weeks without you and I still haven't gotten over you yet

[Chorus]

Vacation, all I ever wanted

Vacation, had to get away

Vacation, meant to be spent alone

Vacation, all I ever wanted

Vacation, had to get away

Vacation, meant to be spent alone

[PreChorus]

A week without you

Thought I'd forget

Two weeks without you and I still haven't gotten over you yet

[Chorus]

Vacation, all I ever wanted

Vacation, had to get away

Vacation, meant to be spent alone

Vacation, all I ever wanted

Vacation, had to get away

Vacation, meant to be spent alone

[Outro]

Vacation, all I ever wanted

Vacation, had to get away

Vacation, meant to be spent alone
