lyrics
Now we're both headed south on an autumn Sunday
But you'll hop over my state in the middle of your flight’s first leg.
And I'll drive through new New York, hardly stop to sleep or dream
Keeping on, turn some old songs up louder than I can even think.
Cause that won't leave too much to do in the way of missing you.
When I threw out the past, I threw out the future too.
I'll visit every friend I have who still speaks my name,
Just to fill the time you're gone, I figure it'll only take one or two a day.
That should shake the rust off of my gut when my stomach starts to sink
I've given up the drunk but I haven't given up the drink.
That might leave too much to do…
Honey, please. I've had a broken heart before.
I assure you this is nothing like it. It hurts worse by far,
Because my hands are made for mending and the only trouble that I see
Is that there's nothing left to fix ‘round here.
Would you be a dear and break something for me?
That won't leave too much to do…
