Ive thought about it for a while

and Ive thought about the many miles

but I think its time that Ive gone away

the feelings that you have for me

have gone away its plain to see

and it looks to me that your pulling away



Im gonna pick it up

Im gonna pick it up today

Im bound pack it up

Im bound pack it up and go away



Ive found it hard to say to you

that this is what I have to do

but there is no way that Im gonna stay

there are so many things you need to know

and I wanna tell you before I go

but its hard to think of just what to say



Im gonna pick it up

Im gonna pick it up today

Im bound pack it up

Im bound pack it up and go away



Im sorry to leave you all alone

youre sitting silent by the phone

but wed always known there would come a day

the bus is warm and softly lit

and a hundred people ride in it

I guess Im just another runaway



Im gonna pick it up

Im gonna pick it up today

Im bound pack it up

Im bound pack it up and go away
