dreaming of leaving
In her imagination She's driving through the sunshine To Malibu No children in the backseat No husband at the wheel No telling where she's going Just followin' the highway To where it leads Dreamin' of leaving That's all it is Dreamin' of something More than this Dreamin' of leaving That's all it is Dreamin' of something More than this She looks out of her window Water from the dishes Running down the drain Clouds on the horizon Reflections of the pane Serve only to remind her Of how it is and how it might have been Dreamin' of leaving That's all it is Dreamin' of something More than this Dreamin' of leaving That's all it is Dreamin' of something More than this She's standin' on the corner The suitcase in her hand Filled with promises It's not about unfaithful It's not about unkind It's just some words they're missing Some other words they left somewhere behind Dreamin' of leaving That's all it is Dreamin' of something More than this Dreamin' of leaving That's all it is Dreamin' of something More than this
