Lyrics

Empty dishes still sitting where I'm gonna leave it
This lamp hasn't been lit in quite a long while
The wick doesn't reach what's left of the oil
And the rain is coming, I'm overcome
These bad newspapers, they pile up unread
Dogs gaze out the windows, I know how they feel
Adventure, adventure, or sit by the door
Open, open sesame, I'm overcome
Figurines, dripping faucets, laundry and dust
I hate to leave this a mess, but I must
Small little suitcase, small roller bells
Small walking shoes and a whole lot to prove
Keepsakes can be anchors and anvils and such
Like pianos and pets and the people we love
Can't change the world from this chair on my space
Spiders tag walls with their names in this place
Figurines, dripping faucets, laundry and dust
I hate to leave this a mess, but I must
Small little suitcase, small roller bells
Small walking shoes and a whole lot to prove
Oh, it's never a clean break when you're trying to leave
But songbirds need homes in live oak trees
