The boss americana

jump as you go
alone inside my room
just for a bit
can't you see
i watch as you go by
while all the others try
for a while

oh can't you stay
on my face
these stains you can't see
now have you gone
for a bit
i know you're not the same
it's hard for me to blame

well i won't know
if i won't ask you to stay
would you let me go?
and i will have your way
you know they took it down
the things you'd say

crap, have you seen
we trust an empty green
with a face of regret
we could have washed the stains
and now the night remains
after all I'm not with you
and i know the trees go back below
high as we fly one more time
i'm not beneath the wind
i'm not beneath the wind

well you're all i know
and i don't want you to stay
oh won't you please let me go
i wouldn't have you that way
disperse our love
if you won't ask me to pay

oh
