Verse
"When we broke down, in that small mining town
I was ready for quittin', my guard was down
It was summer all day, in your dad's chevrolet..."
"And so we decided to stay."
Chorus
"And we want spectacular views..."
"If we're to stay for the weekend..."
"And you swear, there'll be no bad news..."
"If we stay, if we stay, without looking back..."
This pattern repeats for the rest of the song.
Lyrics
Verse 1
When we broke down, in that small mining town,
I was ready for quittin', my guard was down,
It was summer all day, in your dad's chevrolet,
and so we decided to stay
Chorus 1
And we want spectacular views
If we're to stay for the weekend
And you swear, there'll be no bad news
If we stay, if we stay, without looking back
Verse 2
We'll take a small private room, with a window please,
If it opens that's fine, to let in the breeze,
We've been waitin' all year for someone to just say:
Everyone fucks up its gonna be okay
Chorus 2
And the prop planes, they fly overhead
You can hear them returning.
And maybe, it's all in my head
But I'll save my complaints for tomorrow
Verse 3
And when you got sick, I was sad for some days,
But I'm feelin' much better, I just sleep it away.
Now it's just like we never was,
Some things go bad just because.
Chorus 3
And the freeways, they go coast to coast,
They've taken away all my good friends.
And I don't care if you're broke,
You can't stay here tomorrow.
Chorus 4
And the dreams have come back again,
But this time I'm not just watching them.
It's me as pilot instead,
And I land the plane all by myself.

No you can't stay here tomorrow.
