Sleater-Kinney - The Day I Went Away lyrics

rate me

all the things i tried to tell you

on the day i went away

do i always have to leave

for you to want me here to stay

could you just tell me you'd miss me

all the things we never say

and i saw you sit there smiling

as my plane just flew away

so far. so good. so far. i would.

so far. so good. so far. i would.

all the things i tried to write you

from so very far away

never had the time to tell you

reasons why i run away

if i was with you tomorrow

would you still feel far away

when i look and i can't find you

feels like you have gone away

so far. so good. so far. i would.

so far. so good. so far. i would.

please remember, please remember me.

please remember, please remember me.

so far. so good. so far. i would.

so far. so good. so far. i would.

all the things i tried to tell you

on the day i went away

do i always have to leave

for you to want me here to stay

couldn't you just tell me you'll miss me

all those things we never say

i remember what its like there

towns that drive me far away
