Always Leaving Something Lyrics by Braxton Keith
I should’ve seen you coming
The first night we went out
Left our car keys on the table
The waitress chased us down
Right there from the start
She was always leaving something
Like that town she grew up in
She said she never did belong
And on the day she turned eighteen
That girl was good as gone
As far back as she goes
She was always leaving something
Why should I be surprised?
I was only a matter of time
I’m just the latest in her list of left-behinds
So I can’t say nothing
She’s always leaving something
There’s a sundress in the closet
That she just had to have
She must’ve overlooked it
This morning when she packed
And now we’re both just hanging ’round
She’s always leaving something
Why should I be surprised?
I was only a matter of time
I’m just the latest in her list of left-behinds
So I can’t say nothing
She’s always leaving something
I won’t say I’m sorry
That she ever came my way
Wherever she’s going
She ain’t going there to stay
She might be back some day
But she’s always leaving
