The Girl Who Drove Away (2011) Lyrics by Kait Kerrigan & Bree Lowdermilk

2011

(Samantha)
I really don't know what I'm doing here
I don't have anything to share
I guess I'm here to explain myself
Why I went and where
And I guess
That's fair
I'm only human
I've made some mistakes
I don't think I should apologize
We all make our own decisions
We don't get to make revisions
I didn't have a grand plan
I don't know why I started driving
Or where it all begin
All I know is the feeling of having to say
I'm the girl who drove away
I have no excuse to make
How the road was calling
Doesn't matter at all
How I dreamed of highways beckoning
I forgot it was an illusion
It led to the wrong conclusion
I thought I proved I was strong
But when the highway reached the ocean
I realized I was wrong
Standing there like a fool that's the price that I pay
As the girl who drove away
But I still feel it
The way the day blows across the sky
And how the miles keep on flying by
I swear I'd never seen this kind of deep orange sunset
It's almost worth the regret
I'm not complaining
I don't have the right
I have made my choice, I live with it
But I don't sleep at all now
The leaves start to turn
It's fall now
I don't know why I left home
I no longer see
Why a smart girl like me ever wanted to be
The girl who packed her bags
And loaded her dad's old Sedan
That desperate girl who ran
From the future spelt out in her DNA
From the life she deserved
And who stands here today
The girl who drove away
