Like a Saturday night I?ll be gone
A E N.C.
So you wrote it down I?m supposed to care
E Esus
Is it hard to see the things you substitute
E Esus
Maybe it?s childish and maybe its wrong
But so is your blank stare is lieu of this song
E N.C.
Don?t want to be, don?t want to be wro- -ong
You?re leaving me, you?re leaving me in lieu of this song
Don?t want to be, don?t want to be wro- -ong
You?re leaving me, you?re leaving me in lieu of this, in lieu of this song
Solo
I?m breathing in your skin tonight
E Esus
And if it?s healthier to leave you be
E Esus
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh
I?m writing my own words, my own little stage
My own epic drama, my own scripted page
I?ll send you the rough draft, I?ll seal it with tears
Maybe you?ll read it and I?ll reappear
From the start it was shaky and the characters rash
A nice setting for heartache where emotions come last
Oh, I haven?t even sought to overcome this desire
Of friendly intentions and fare-weathered smiles
And I don?t want to be, don?t want to be wro- -ong
You?re leaving me, you?re leaving me in lieu of this song
Don?t want to be, don?t want to be wro- -ong
You?re leaving me, you?re leaving me in lieu of this, in lieu of this song
Like Saturday night I?ll be go- -one
Like Saturday night I?ll be go- -one
Like Saturday night I?ll be go- -one
Like Saturday night I?ll be gone before you knew that I was there
