Reeves Ronna - Staying Gone lyrics

Everytime she walked out

She just ran back

He was a smooth talker from day one

Always vowing how he'd get his life back on track

And buying time with presents for their son

Everytime she washed his clothes

She made her plan

He'd raise a hand against her if he knew

One night he went for bread

She went for broke

She had her mother waiting

Hiding out of view

She took only the boy

And the clothes they had on

Praying she find a way

Of staying gone

She's staying gone

She's never going back

The chain around her heart

Has finally broken

And it takes a lot of courage

To start a life anew

But the bravest thing she'll ever do

Is staying gone

Everytime he called her up

She caught her breath

And listened to him twisting up her mind

She knew she had to save what was there left

So she put her finger down, cut off the line

She took the road out of town

So she'll never be found

When old memories beg her to come back around

She's staying gone

She's never going back

The chain around her heart

Has finally broken

And it takes a lot of courage

To start a life anew

But the bravest thing she'll ever do

Is staying gone

She's staying gone
