And I swear it´s the last time and I swear it´s my last try
and we´ll walk in circles around this whole block
walk on the cracks of the same old sidewalks
then we´ll talk about leaving town
yeah we´ll talk about leaving
I swear it´s the last time, and I swear it´s my last try

We rode across that bridge all night
we talked our way through city lights
traced all the lines, we´re killing time
under those buzzing signs
from downtown to anywhere but here
tonight, yeah, I swear to these rooftops
and just hoped that car would never stop

[Chorus:]
And I swear it´s the last time and I swear it´s my last try
and we´ll walk in circles around this whole block
walk on the cracks of the same old sidewalks
and we´ll talk about leaving town
and we´ll talk about leaving
I swear it´s the last time and I swear it´s my last try

We drove around this place all night
past closed signs and familiar sights
we´re moving by, passing time
counting those center lines
with 20,000 lines left to go
that lead to somewhere I don´t know
it might be the time that we leave this all behind

[Chorus]

And there´s been a few times
that we thought it felt right
to take all the westbound signs
and just leave town tonight

And I swear it´s the last time and I swear it´s my last try
and we´ll walk in circles around this whole block
walk on the cracks of the same old sidewalks
and we´ll talk about leaving town
yeah we´ll talk about leaving
I swear it´s the last time and I swear it´s my last try
and I swear it´s my last try
and we´ll talk about leaving town
and we´ll talk about leaving town
