lyrics

you’re on the last train
to i don’t know where
you never learn your destination ’til you get there

she was your girlfriend
she made a fast break
and she left you with a kitten and a heartache

you never had a chance with a girl like that
i could have told you if you asked me
she took you to the moon and then she dropped you flat
at least you got to keep the cat

she was a new friend
it was an odd night
of talking shit and doing shots beneath the streetlights

you had a nice time
while it lasted
then you got drunk and can’t remember what you last did

you should have placed your bets on a girl like that
she would have stayed but no one’s asking
had her eye on you but should have watched her back
at least she got to meet your cat

just when i thought i was familiar with you
you’re busy mastering another stupid human trick
what’s the point of wanting nine lives
only to waste them all?

i was your best friend
will you remember me
sitting in the alley where you left me

i had an inkling
it’s not the first time
i’ve had to watch and wonder what the hell you’re thinking

you’re never gonna heal all your wounds like that
such a shame you couldn’t ask me
you’ll find out after searching for your better half:
you really should have kept the cat
