lyrics

What you came here, honey to see
Is not the same
As the picture framed
That you wanted to believe
Where you’d pinned all your hopes
And your plans, and your dreams

It’s time for you to go home
Nothing to see
Nothing to put into your letter to your folks
Maybe it’s time to go home

This is not my truth to you
Baby, if it hurts
These are not my words
I just thought you aught to know
When they form inside
They sound better than that

And if there’s nobody home?
Replay scene after scene
Of how it should have been
Of how it should have been
Nobody else knows.
