Sing To Me

Saint Louis knew him well with a motorcycle jacket and greasy hair
Big man on campus, a bad boy surrounded by his cigarette air
Going through art school was a waste of time
Lucy left for the city and he was left behind

I want to know more than a broken down Toyota, ten years at a day
I want to know more than a shabby bed to sleep in and a dad that I can't help but hate
Wouldn't you want me to leave or would you want me to see
That what's important to you means close to nothing to me
I want to hear again, a note left on the fridge
Baby I have to go but I'll always miss her saying

Sing me the song you wrote last night
Let it be the one that makes it right
I wanna know how far you're willing to go
Goodbye, goodbye
Sing me the song you wrote last night
Let it be the one that makes it right
I wanna know how far you're willing to go
Goodbye, goodbye

Packed his bags got his father's old suitcase
From the closet on the second floor
This year is hell but there's a better one that we are waiting for
She is all he will ever understand and never will figure out
That's how he knew that she was what his life was all about

I want to know more than a broken down Toyota, ten years at a day
I want to know more than a shabby bed to sleep in and a dad that I can't help but hate
Wouldn't you want me to leave or would you want me to see
That what's important to you means close to nothing to me
I want to hear again, a note left on the fridge
Baby I have to go but I'll always miss her saying

Sing me the song you wrote last night
Let it be the one that makes it right
I wanna know how far you're willing to go
Goodbye, goodbye
Sing me the song you wrote last night
Let it be the one that makes it right
I wanna know how far you're willing to go
Goodbye, goodbye

The day he arrived, all the shit it hit the fan
She moved on to something more
Something she got a better man
We didn't satisfy all that I needed
Or even what I want
I should have dumped you in Louie
Cuz' disappointments all I got

I want to know more than a broken down Toyota, ten years at a day
I want to know more than a shabby bed to sleep in and a dad that I can't help but hate
Wouldn't you want me to leave or would you want me to see
That what's important to you means close to nothing to me
I want to hear again, a note left on the fridge
Baby I have to go but I'll always miss her saying

Sing me the song you wrote last night
Let it be the one that makes it right
I wanna know how far you're willing to go
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
