Away, away, away with this robin's nest
and all the tears you shed you'll soon forget
Just don't leave us left behind on the right side of the mind you've set
And away, away, away with this old news
'Cause nothing ever came from what I thought that I knew
Just don't tell me that it shows through my fear of animals
And I wonder if I left for good would you get lost in someone else?
Would you hang me up on a shelf and cry for yourself?
And i say these words 'cause I never could get caught up in myself
'Cause a heart needs another heart to settle
And away, away, away with this old news, 'cause nothing ever came from what I thought that I knew
A little love can go so far these days
It's about time we stopped lying about this
Just don't sell yourself short this time, my dear
and all the tears you shed you'll soon forget

And I wonder if I left for good would you get lost in someone else?
