lyrics

Midnight late rides, a car crammed full of laughter
Who could've guessed Miss Loneliness
Found herself away from her disaster
A worthwhile endeavor, she’s getting much better
At not holding it in
If words are too hard she can grab a guitar and let the song begin

Well she’s farther than she started, that’s for sure
Who could have predicted an ending like this?
It’s better than what she ever wanted, so much more
With people she’s found she’ll already miss

She’s been learning, yearning for someone
To sweep her off her feet or maybe tell her that she’s stellar or that they love her at least
But she’ll still be content in the end
‘Cause after all, a friend is a friend
And that’s still something new, still something sweet

Well she’s farther than she started, that’s for sure
Who could have predicted an ending like this?
It’s better than what she ever wanted, so much more
With people she’s found she’ll already miss

And the years weren’t perfect
But she’s starting to learn that that’s all right
She needed punctures that hurt
To give some worth to the holes that let down the sky
Lit up with stars, what’s mine and what’s ours
Doesn’t matter when it’s all that we’ve got
And if you agree, that this is to be
A final send off

And we’re farther than we started, that’s for sure
And I’d never have thought we’d end up all like this
I hope you’re better than you ever wanted and much more
With lights up above
A send off with love
From the memories you’ve called your own
From the place that you’ve called home
From the people that you’ve known
And who could have thought it would end like this?
With people you already miss
