West Point

[Verse 1]
I'm re-travelling this lifeline
That's so close to home
We are on our way to West Point
Where your perfect, blond cousin
Will throw his hat up in the air
And we will watch it fall

[Verse 2]
And I'm still the girl that loved you
When your eyes were open wide
I'm still the girl that wandered on
And I'm still the girl that lied
'Cause when I'd tell the truth
You would, you would run and hide

[Chorus]
But my hands get shaky and I think of
All the reasons and I start to drink
I get lonely, get depressed
Don't sleep well nights, can't get dressed
I can't help myself

[Verse 3]
You'll order beer and a sandwich
At the bar at the hotel
And you'll want to tell me something
Just like every other time
And our hopes will rise
And we'll watch them fall

[Verse 4]
You're still written in my days
All the pages coming back to me
I will carry you along, singing discreetly
Old raincoat, two lives
No boyfriend, no wife
Don't want to die here and nobody know
I don't want to die here and nobody know

[Chorus]
But my hands get shaky and I think of
All the reasons and I start to drink
I get lonely, get depressed
Don't sleep well nights, can't get dressed
I can't help myself
'Cause I get lonely, get depressed
Don't sleep well nights, can't get dressed

[Outro]
Don't want to die here and nobody know
Don't want to die here and nobody know
Don't want to die here and nobody know
Don't want to die here
