West Point

I'm re-travelling this lifeline

That's so close to home

We are on our way to West Point

Where your perfect, blond cousin

Will throw his hat up in the air

And we will watch it fall

And I'm still the girl that loved you

When your eyes were open wide

I'm still the girl that wandered on

And I'm still the girl that lied

'Cause when I'd tell the truth

You would, you would run and hide

But my hands get shaky and I think of

All the reasons and I start to drink

I get lonely, get depressed

Don't sleep well nights, can't get dressed

I can't help myself

You'll order beer and a sandwich

At the bar at the hotel

And you'll want to tell me something

Just like every other time

And our hopes will rise

And we'll watch them fall

You're still written in my days

All the pages coming back to me

I will carry you along, singing discreetly

Old raincoat, two lives

No boyfriend, no wife

Don't want to die here and nobody know

I don't want to die here and nobody know

But my hands get shaky and I think of

All the reasons and I start to drink

I get lonely, get depressed

Don't sleep well nights, can't get dressed

I can't help myself

'Cause I get lonely, get depressed

Don't sleep well nights, can't get dressed

Don't want to die here and nobody know

Don't want to die here and nobody know

Don't want to die here and nobody know

Don't want to die here
