[Verse 1]

Just got back from Kill Devil Falls

Draped my water-logged clothes in the hall

Reach for a beer, glad that I'm here

When I realize that you're not around

[Verse 2]

Turned on some music and then the TV

Go through the pile of mail waitin' for me

Something I spied makes me pull it aside

A letter from your hometown

[Chorus]

How could you leave me? You heard what I said

I'd be at the waterfall clearin' my head

Soakin' up nature and thinkin' 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?

[Post-Chorus]

But I learned my lesson

And I can still remember the last one

But this time will be different, until I do it again

[Verse 3]

Stared at the ceiling for over a day

But none of my questions are answered this way

Won't make any calls, I'll just bounce off the walls

'Til I go back to Kill Devil Falls

[Chorus]

How could you leave me? You heard what I said

I'd be at the waterfall clearin' my head

Soakin' up nature and thinkin' 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?

[Post-Chorus]

But I learned my lesson

And yes, I still remember the last one

But this time will be different

This time will be different

[Bridge 1]

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 leap

And I stare straight into the future

Tell me, what do you see?

This time's gonna be different

[Bridge 2]

Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh

Don't go back to Kill Devil Falls

Oh-oh, oh-oh, woah

Don't go back to Kill Devil Falls

Oh-oh, oh-oh, woah

Don't go back to Kill Devil Falls

Oh-oh

[Post-Chorus]

But I learned my lesson

And I can still remember the last one

But this time will be different

[Interlude]

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

[Guitar Solo]

[Outro]

Don't go back to Kill Devil Falls

Don't go back to Kill Devil Falls

Don't go back to Kill Devil Falls
