the smell of your skin lingers on me now
your probably on your flight back to your hometown
i need some shelter of my own protection, baby
to be with my self and center
clarity, peace, serenity

i hope you know, i hope you know
that this has nothing to do with you
its personal myself and i
we'eve some straightenin' out to do
and i'm gonna miss you like the child misses their blanket
but i've got to get a move on with my life
and big girls don't cry

fairy tales don't always have a happy ending do they?
and i forsee the dark ahead if i stay
