You don't know how good you have it 'til you don't have it at all
Like you don't appreciate the trees 'til the leaves start to fall
The phone keeps on ringin' and you can't ignore that call
You've said all there is to say, you've got no time left to stall
Our time is up in this town
As much as I'd like to stick around
I'll be gone by tomorrow, babe
But I'll be back someday
Watch it in the rearview as it slowly fades away
But there's no turnin' back when you're drivin' on a one way
I guess it's true what they say
You blink and it's over in a day
Our time is up in this town
As much as I'd like to stick around
I'll be gone by tomorrow, babe
But I'll be back someday
My time is up, I've put it all behind
Out of sight but still on my mind
They say the grass is greener on the other side
But I don't think the sun shines as bright
Our time is up in this town
It's sure been one hell of a go around
Yeah I'm gone on my way
Promise I'll be back someday
