Well it's five in the morning and the light's
already broken And the rainy streets are empty for
nobody else has woken Yet you turn towards the
window as he sleeps beneath the covers And you
wonder what he's dreaming in his slumbers

There's a clock upon the table and it's burning up
the hour And you feel your life is shrinking like
the petals of a flower As you creep towards the
closet you're so careful not to wake him And you
choose the cotton dress you bought last summer

There's a time of indecision between the bedroom
and the door But the part of you that knows that
you can't take it any more There's the promise of
the future in the creaking of the floor And you're
torn if you should leave him with a number

And in your imagination you're a thousand miles
away Because too many of his promises got broken
on the way So you write it in a letter all the
things you couldn't say And you tell him that
you're never coming home

She starts running for the railway station praying
that her calculation's right And there's a train
just waiting there to get her to the city before
night A place to sleep a place to stay will get
her through another day She'll take a job she'll
find a friend she'll make a life that's better

The passengers ignore her just a girl with an
umbrella And there's nothing they can do for her,

they could ever say would change the way she feels
today She'd live the life she'd always dreamed if
he had only let her

Now in her imagination she's a million miles away
When too many of his promises got broken on the
way So she wrote it in a letter all the things she
couldn't say And she told him she was never coming
home She told him she was never coming home

I wake up in an empty bed a road drill hammers in
my head I call her name there's no reply it's not
like her to let me lie It's time for work it's
time to go but something's different I don't know
I need a cup of coffee I'll feel better

I stumble to the bathroom door, her make up bag is
on the floor It really is a mess this place it
takes some time to shave my face I'm not really
thinking straight she never lets me sleep this
late I'm almost done and then I see the letter

In his imagination she's a universe away Too many
of his promises got broken on the way So she wrote
it in a letter all things she couldn't say And she
told him she was never coming home, She told him
she was never coming home, She told him she was
never coming home

I'm gonna live my life And she told him she was
never coming home I'm gonna live my life in my own
way
