Woke up this morning with my head so heavy… Thought about leaving on the next train comin’ Sometimes it gets so easy running from town to town But changing beds won’t change this feeling that I’m gonna drown Too many hearts are broken– we’re never asked why Too many sunsets are just passing us by […]
