Intro

  

Verse 1

Untie me, I've said no vows
The train is getting way too loud
I gotta leave here my girl
Get on with my lonely life   
Just leave the ring on the rail
For the wheels to nullify   

Verse 2

Until this turn in my head
I let you stay and you paid no rent
I spent twelve long months on the lam   
That's enough sitting on the fence
For the fear of breaking dams   

Pre-Chorus 1

I find a fatal flaw
In the logic of love
And go out of my head 
You love a sinking stone
That'll never elope

Chorus

So get used to the lonesome
Girl, you must atone some
Don't leave me no phone number there

Verse 3

It took me all of a year
To put the poison pill to your ear
But now I stand on honest ground, on honest ground  
You want to fight for this love
But honey you cannot wrestle a dove
So baby it's clear   

Pre-Chorus 2

You want to jump and dance
But you sat on your hands
And lost your only chance 
Go back to your hometown
Get your feet on the ground
And stop floating around 

Pre-Chorus 1

I find a fatal flaw
In the logic of love
And go out of my head 
You love a sinking stone
That'll never elope

Chorus

So get used to the lonesome
Girl, you must atone some
Don't leave me no phone number there
