lyrics

At 25 I made the move up north
I was lookin for something more
Playing shows on this here guitar
My friends all came piled in one car
Then one night they stopped showing up
Couldn’t handle this side of town
They’d stay out drinking till the early light
Then say “Hey man we missed you last night”

Just another night I wasn’t there
Just another night I’m missing out
Just because I’m the one who left
Doesn’t mean I wanna I get left behind

Just last week mumma said to me
“Don’t forget my anniversary.
Will you be here where you belong?”
Sorry mum I’m playing in Geelong
Today I got the first of these calls
Two friends were gonna give it their all
The engagement parties on the 21st
Sorry man I’m playin in Bathurst

Just another night I wasn’t there
Just another night I’m missing out
Just because I’m the one who left
Doesn’t mean I wanna I get left behind

Another night alone has come and gone
The life I chose has left me feeling torn
New towns and unfamiliar faces
Are trying to steal already taken places
For all the nights you thought I’d be there
You know it’s not that I don’t care
I’m trying to be the only thing I can
One day soon I hope you’ll understand

All those nights that I wasn’t there
All those nights that I’m missing out
Just because im the one who left
Doesn’t mean I wanna get left behind
