Sadie
Sadie's footsteps echoed in the dark and still no one behind her She relaxed allowed herself to breathe Sadie found a bench in central park Bag of memories beside her Made a vow that she would never grieve She pulled the compact from her suitcase to see if the disguise was there By now the bruise was showing through Sadie gazed at her reflection Caught herself in mid-stare If only this were something new Sadie you say that this time you're gonna go far away but it's not the first we heard this vow so why should we believe you now You gave in gave out pushed away only to come back to him anyway and have you even thought of how you'll make it alone Sadie says, "I'm still not coming home" Sadie thought of calling up her friends to say she'd finally left that bastard Maybe Robin would put her up for the night or go to the Greyhound station Buy a ticket and get out faster Letras de cancionesCalifornia just about sounded right or move to the south end of the city Change her job and change her name and try and start it all again Jim might help her find a new apartment Joan might have some clothes to spare or chuck it all and take that one way train Sadie you say that this time you're gonna go far away but it's not the first we heard this vow so why should we believe you now You gave in gave out pushed away only to come back to him anyway and have you even thought of how you'll make it alone Sadie says, "I'm still not coming home" As sand runs through the hourglass it seems that the dreams don't hold to fast and the night is getting colder with each passing minute She sees her life a TV show with many more seasons to go but it's always been a re-run ever since she was in it Sadie never bought that bus pass or grabbed a telephone Friends would never hear about this night Sadie re-applied her make-up too afraid to be alone Convinced herself this choice was right So Sadie maybe you will leave him another day Can't afford to leave him now You should patch up things somehow You gave in gave out pushed away only to come back to him anyway and did you really think you'd ever make it alone Sadie says, "I guess I'm coming home" Sadie's footsteps echoed in the dark one more time From Letras Mania
