Description
[Verse 1]
Baby walking out of town,
I caught your shadow in the glow of dawn.
Never thought I’d hit the dime,
But you slipped away before the sun was gone.
[Pre-Chorus]
I thought you’d be right for me,
I thought you’d shine like the morning sea.
But the weight beneath your smile grew heavy,
Like fog settling deep on the bay.
[Chorus]
Baby, you were a liar, a flicker on my shiner,
I thought you’d rock away every timer.
Maybe if you find me, hit the club on me, baby,
I know where you are, but you can’t find me.
[Verse 2]
You passed like a ghost through the mirror by my face,
Maybe you set the pace in my restless chase.
I thought you’d be the one, steady on the ground,
But your voice was silence, your words, the sound of no sound.
[Pre-Chorus]
I thought you’d be right for me,
Thought there was light when you smiled at me.
But the shimmer turned to rust on these hands,
Like leaves turning brittle in unfamiliar lands.
[Chorus]
Baby, you were a liar, a flicker on my shiner,
I thought you’d rock away every timer.
Maybe if you find me, hit the club on me, baby,
I know where you are, but you can’t find me.
[Bridge]
You walked out, cold pavement beneath your feet,
A sudden silence where our worlds used to meet.
I’m tracing footsteps fading in the rain,
Wondering if you ever felt the same.
[Chorus]
Baby, you were a liar, a flicker on my shiner,
I thought you’d rock away every timer.
Maybe if you find me, hit the club on me, baby,
I know where you are, but you can’t find me.
[Outro]
Baby walking out of town, fading from my view,
I never thought it’d be this bright, yet so untrue.
