[Verse 1]
Don't you sometimes wish
That they would leave us all alone
In an undefined, unequal kind of way
We would be home
Run down to the mailbox
See if they forgot again
And remind me not to answer when you call

[Chorus]
I will be gone
Just leave the door ajar and run
'Cause when they find you
They'll just tie you down
And I'll never hear you call

[Verse 2]
What I need is something
That will make me smile again
Keep me up 'til midnight dreaming
And nothing hurts like they do
Even when they're on their own
So believe me when I tell you not to call

[Chorus]
I will be gone
Just leave the door ajar and run
'Cause when they find you
They'll just tie you down
And I'll never hear you call
'Cause when they find you
[Bridge]
Don't you sometimes wish
Don't you sometimes wish
Don't you sometimes wish
Don't you sometimes wish

[Breakdown]
And don't you sometimes wish
That they would leave us all alone
(Don't you think it's time we got you home)
Do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do
(Don't you think it's time we got you home)
Don't you sometimes wish
(Don't you think it's time we got you home)
Do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do
(Don't you think it's time we got you home)

[Outro]
And don't you sometimes wish
That they would leave us all alone
