Oh, this desert’s left me dry
and I just wish it would rain one last time
I’m looking for a place I can call my own
but if you were there, I’d call it home
All this love has made me so sad
but I know one day it’ll pass
I’m not looking for a friend or a helping hand
cause I know this whole thing ends
Maybe a change of scene will do me well
or even a second chance at goodbye
Now, I’ve felt a change of heart
and overcoming that is the hardest part
I’m happy here with peace of mind in all that I do
and now I have to leave that too
I don’t want to hear the truth
what would life be like without you
you’ve nurtured me and watched me grow and held me so tight
until our love passed away in the night
Maybe a change of scene will do me well
or even a second chance at goodbye
