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..
And I swear to these rooftops, and just hope that car would never stop

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 drove around this place all night
Past closed signs and familiar sights
We're moving by, passing time counting those center lines
With twenty thousand lines left to go that lead to somewhere I don't know
It might be the time that we leave this all behind

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....

And there's been a few times that we thought it felt right
To take the west-bound 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
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....
