Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Wrap me in a bolt of lightning, send me on my way still smiling

Maybe that's the way I should go, straight into the mouth of the unknown

I left the spare key on the table, never really thought I'd be able

To say I merely visit on the weekends, I lost my whole life and a dear friend

[PreChorus]

I've said it so many times

I would change my ways, no, never mind

God knows I've tried

[Chorus]

Call me a sinner, call me a saint

Tell me it's over, I'll still love you the same

Call me your favorite, call me the worst

Tell me it's over, I don't want you to hurt

[Refrain]

It's all that I can say

So I'll be on my way

[Verse 2]

I finally put it all together, but nothin' really lasts forever

I had to make a choice that was not mine, I had to say goodbye for the last time

I kept my whole life in a suitcase, never really stayed in one place

Maybe that's the way it should be, you know I live my life like a gypsy

[PreChorus]

I've said it so many times

I would change my ways, no, never mind

God knows I've tried

[Chorus]

Call me a sinner, call me a saint

Tell me it's over, I'll still love you the same

Call me your favorite, call me the worst

Tell me it's over, I don't want you to hurt

[Refrain]

It's all that I can say

So I'll be on my way

[Bridge]

I'll always keep you inside

You healed my heart and my life

And you know I tried

[Chorus]

Call me a sinner, call me a saint

Tell me it's over, I'll still love you the same

Call me your favorite, call me the worst

Tell me it's over, I don't want you to hurt

[Refrain]

It's all that I can say

So I'll be on my way

[Outro]

So I'll be on my way

So I'll be on my way
