3 a.m. in newport

Pack your bags dear Cause I'm headed for the coast
Because the coast's clear-ly where I'm meant to go
So just take one last lingering long-ing look

And Turn the Lights out Cause it's plenty lit out there
For all the nights out breathing California air
So I'm going whether you come or not

But as the sun first hits the east coast
I'll just be getting home

Carolina You and I we had our days
But now that I'm a bit more perceptive I can say
That the road less traveled won't lead you to LA

But as the sun first hits the east coast
I'll just be getting home
And as the rain beats down on Newport I'll know I'm better off
I'm better off on my own

Pack your bags dear
We're not done we're
Just starting to shine

Turn the lights out
It's always bright out
Under brand new skies

But as the sun first hits the east coast
I'll just be getting home (getting home)
And as the rain beats down on Newport I'll know I'm better off
I'm better off on my own
