pick a number between one and ten

it begins with a simple counting down of days

i guess it's been about a year

since you went there and i came here

and i often wish we could have stayed


it's hard to talk about sometimes

so i put these rhymes together

sometimes it makes me feel better

sometimes it just makes me feel much worse

but i'm giving it my best

i've invested so much more than i expected

where i started as i left i sang this verse


he said baby you feel like home

and i'm so tired of being alone

and i hate that i have to go but i'm going anyway

there's just some things you have to do

some situations to go through

i still love you but i'm going anyway


sometimes i think we were made to be afraid

and worn out, rough around the edges

with our hearts teetering on ledges

not too strong

sometimes i think we were sent

with intent to meet and break each other's hearts

get pulled apart and fill the world up with our songs


he said baby you feel like home

and i hate to be alone

and i hate that i have to go but i'm going anyway

there's just some things you have to do

some situations to go through

i still love you but i'm going anyway
