[00:00.54]She's cutting out the bruises
[00:04.64]Forgetting her excuses for being here again
[00:09.45]With a suitcase packed and waiting by the door
[00:14.76]In her head
[00:16.46]Convinced herself she hasn't lost
[00:18.77]Enough to quit
[00:21.27].
[00:21.58]But tonight she lays here thinking
[00:23.56]What if I just left
[00:28.20]In the middle of the night
[00:31.10]Back to California
[00:32.79]And never look back
[00:35.42].
[00:35.79]She'll fantasize about it
[00:37.94]Every single day but she can't find it
[00:41.87]In her heart to run away
[00:44.73]And no one's listening
[00:46.24]With Northern Massachusetts
[00:49.74]On his knees to stay
[00:51.37]He's begging
[00:52.18]"Please, oh baby please, I can explain
[00:55.62]It won't happen again"
[00:57.18].
[01:01.54]He's putting out the fires
[01:03.96]And he's making her believe
[01:07.01]He's really changed
[01:08.75]This time
[01:10.06]But it's obvious it's just another line
[01:13.79]Lapse and relapse
[01:15.36].
[01:15.66]And again she lays beside him thinking:
[01:18.46]I'll pretend in the middle of the night
[01:25.17]My eyes are closed I'm sleeping
[01:27.96]But I won't come back
[01:29.40].
[01:29.72]She'll fantasize about it
[01:31.88]Every single day but she can't find it
[01:35.70]In her heart to run away
[01:38.62]And no one's listening
[01:40.23]With Northern Massachusetts
[01:42.77]On his knees to stay
[01:44.65]He's begging
[01:46.09]"Please, oh baby please, I can explain
[01:49.48]It won't happen again
[01:54.87]It won't happen again"
[01:57.11].
[02:02.14]How long can this last?
[02:04.72]The final straw was the hospital
[02:07.31]At least she told herself that
[02:09.47]But she just can't find the strength to end it!
[02:12.45].
[02:12.69]I just left
[02:16.14]In the middle of the night
[02:19.37]Back to California
[02:21.75]I'll never look back
[02:23.23].
[02:23.60]She'll fantasize about it
[02:25.86]Every single day but she can't find it
[02:29.64]In her heart to run away (To run away)
[02:33.31]With Northern Massachusetts
[02:36.66]On his knees to stay
[02:38.61]He's begging
[02:39.59]"Please, oh baby please, I can explain
[02:43.32]It won't happen again
[02:48.77]It won't happen again!"
[02:50.84].
