Soft, Grey Rain Lyrics

You probably lied to me
And I took it as fact
And its not fair to blame
Jack Kerouack
Cause I traided it all in
For some place to get lost
I burn my bridges
That I swam across
I really never meant to be gone so long
And then when I got back, I got back to find you've gone

Now I've seen the road
And it's no more real
Than a walk across
The kitchen floor
But it's something I can't shake
And I can't forget
Like a smoker needs
A morning cigarette
I really never meant to be gone so long
And then when I got back, I got back to find you've gone
From the airport I
Took a yellow cab
There was a soft grey rain
As it drove me back
And if I set you down
Across the sea
Looks like we've both
Got the same disease
I really never meant to be gone so long
And then when I got back, I got back to find you've gone
I found a pretty hour not to stay still alone so
I reckon when you get back you'll get back to find me gone
