When we broke up she woke up and took it like a casualty
She packs up her things and brings them with her across the sea
An American child yet all of the while she was there for me
Cuz she was dyin in her rountine of mediocrity
She left this side with nothing to hide she's got an honest heart
She's out with the old and in with the new a brand new start
It seemed to me the place to be and she agreed
Now she's gonna start it all, all over again
I said I hate to say I told you so but it was me who said to go, and leave us behind
Take a load off your mind
And all this time she's got a tune in her head that all the children said hey heyyyy
Who can express the taste in the air it was a delicacy
The tune in her head she whistled in bed it was a symphony
And all the while it seemed a style, enough for me
She would never return to the one she left behind
To all she's our kind
Cuz now she's gonna start it all, all over again
I said I hate to say I told you so but it was me who said to go, and leave us behind
Take a load off your mind
And all this time she's got a tune in her head that all the children said hey heyyyy
I said I hate to say I told you so but it was me who said to go, and leave us behind
Take a load off your mind
And all this time she's got a tune in her head that all the children said hey heyyyy
And it goes a little something like this
