Wasting time at nowhere very special Seems almost a part of it these days I know every crack along the pavement I remember what you said in '88 You said, it's time to leave this town The world keeps turning 'round The only thing that keeps me here is you You said, it's time to leave this town The world keeps turning 'round The only thing that keeps me here is you I'm drinking in the same bar where I met you Without you it wouldn't be the same We talk for hours and hours 'bout different places You said that you would see them all some day You said, it's time to leave this town The world keeps turning 'round The only thing that keeps me here is you You said, it's time to leave this town The world keeps turning 'round The only thing that keeps me here is you You were always so good with words The tales you told we've heard The thing you said to me that day Will never fade in memory that time is unforgiving You know that I won't make it without you No matter just what window you look out of The view just never ever seems to change And I swear that we ain't getting any younger But we'll chase all of our dreams all the same You said, it's time to leave this town The world keeps turning 'round The only thing that keeps me here is you You said, it's time to leave this town The world keeps turning 'round The only thing that keeps me here is you Just another lonely winter's day
