i’ve got it packed and ready waiting by the door
the bandana bundle stick and all i’ve been living for
and i know that if i turned around there’d be half a chance she’d smile
and that’s when i know
i’d rather go
there are pictures to say that we knew eachother then
struck by just how young she looks i flip through them over again
if i took the time to wait would we in bloody bond find peace
in that question i know
i’d rather go
i couldn’t thank her for trying
i’ve spent a long time deciding
and i’ll always weigh the possibilities of what i left
whatever it shows i’d rather go
winter’s on it’s way now no one is fighting it tonight
it’s coming in and wind blows knocking down the storefront’s colored lights
and i know there’s warmth in famiies past their crooked open arms
still i know
i’d rather go
