On
a dirty little corner in a dirty little town
Sits an old fortune teller for a nickle and a crown
Behind
a dusty red curtain on a grey plastic chair
The teller leans forward and whispers in my ear
"You've
got a one way ticket and you've got to get away
You've got a one way ticket leaving today"
When
I was a kid, maybe three or four
This
strange old figure came knocking at my door
He said he was my angel but i couldn't be sure
'Cause he left years later and never came back
He
had a one way ticket and he had to get away
He
had a one way ticket leaving today
I'm
sorry but i've got to go i've got to say goodbye
We'll meet again maybe somewhere along the way
But
'till then...
Now
i'm a little older a little wiser too
Well maybe not so much but i know what i could lose
And i ain't gonna win staring at these walls
'Cause my brain is itching and the world it calls
I've
got a one way ticket and i've got to get away
I've got a one way ticket leaving today
I've got a one way ticket and i've got to get away
I've
got a one way ticket leaving today...
