Teenage days going crazy
A mean stepdad and her sister's Babies
Mother screaming always on her phone ...
Gotta get out ... gotta leave this home
And she won't be here tomorrow
she dropped the keys down on her tray
Shut the front door right behind her
she just Turned & walked away
She headed south to lose her ghosts
a hotel maid somewhere down the coast
The crashing waves, endless sand
A distant ship ... the Promised land
Now she won't be here tomorrow
As she picked up her final pay
Shut the hotel door behind her
she just Turned & walked away
For a restless girl ... it's a great big world ...
YEAH! YEAH! YEAH!
YEAH! YEAH! YEAH!
Drifting round thru the years
Jobs & guys ...love & tears
Never ever caught in a trap
Always forward ... never back
And she won't be here tomorrow
so many places still to stray
shut another dream behind her
she just Turned & walked away
No, she won't be here tomorrow
as her hair now hints of grey
and the years roll on beside her
she just Turns & walks away
