 night after night,  she lies awake and looks at the stars
 she's dreaming of the elegant bars
 the ocean and convertible cars
 and day after day  she dreams about running away
 'cause every moment feels just the same
 as the one that just floated away
 so when  you're ready, let me know
 i'll meet you by the side of the road
 i'll pack up all my things and we'll  go
 'cause i'm  not leaving you behind
 it was really just a matter of time
 'til you came around and made up your mind,  made up your mind
 there's  a 10:15 that leaves to LA
 we could be there in a couple of days
 get lost in the metropolan maze
 but don't tell your folks,  we'll send a postcard from the road
 trade in the desert for an oceanfront home
 sing karaoke to the burning of Rome
 so when  you're ready, let me know
 i'll meet you by the side of the road
 i'll pack up all my things and we'll  go
 'cause i'm  not leaving you behind
 it was really just a matter of time
 'til you came around and made up your mind,  made up your mind
 you know there's something  more, and baby,  so do i  ...
 now day after day,  she dreams about leaving LA
 she can't imagine how she can stay
 caught up in this metropolan haze
 so when  you're ready, let me know
 i'll meet you by the side of the road
 i'll pack up all my things and we'll  go
 i think i might  be leaving you behind
 it was really just a matter of time
 until i came around and made up my mind
