Song Lyrics

Just got back from kill devil falls
Draped my waterlogged clothes in the hall
Reach for a beer, glad that I'm here
When I realize that you're not around

Turned on some music and then the T.V.
Go through the pile of mail waiting for me
Something I spy makes me pull it aside
A letter from your home town

How could you leave me, you heard what I said
I'd be at the waterfall clearing my head
Soaking up nature and thinking of you
But leaving's the last thing I thought you would do

I didn't plan to stop at the bar
But kill devil falls is really so far
Who knew a day would turn into a week?
But I learned my lesson
And I can still remember the last one
But this time will be different
Until I do it again

Stared at the ceiling for over a day
But none of my questions are answered this way
Won't make any calls, I just bounce off the walls
'Till I go back to kill devil falls

How could you leave me?
You heard what I said
I'd be at the waterfall clearing my head
Soaking up nature and thinking of you
And leaving's the last thing I thought you would do

I didn't plan to stop at the bar
But kill devil falls is really so far
Who knew a day would turn into a week?
But I learned my lesson
And I can still remember the last one
But this time will be different
This time will be different!

And I stand at the base of the mountain (don't follow me)
And I step right up to the cliff side (gotta learn how to lead)
And I stare straight into the future (tell me, what do you see?)
This time's gonna be different

Oh, don't go back to kill devil falls
Oh, don't go back to kill devil falls
Oh, don't go back to kill devil falls
Oh, I learned my lesson!
And I can still remember the last one
But this time will be different

Don't go back to kill devil falls
Don't go back to kill devil falls
Don't go back to kill devil falls
Don't go back to kill devil falls
Don't go back to kill devil falls

Don't go back to kill devil falls
Don't go back to kill devil falls
Don't go back to kill devil falls
