up'n'left

I know I've been gone
for such a long time
on my own trip yeah
out of my mind
I just had to get away
to get out on my own
if you don't ever leave babe
how you gonna get back home?

that's when I up'n'left town
put the pedal to the ground
bought myself another round
that's when you know you're going down
just another round...

I've travelled half the world
I've seen all the sights
I've danced with boys that would be girls
creatures of the night
and if I had the chance again
you know damn well I'd do ya right
but I think it's safe to say
that just ain't my plight

you know I love you
always thinking of you
O what you mean to me
but how you bleed me
baby believe me
I do it willingly
but it ain't healthy
yeah it's killing me
