[Verse 1]

Yeah I was sitting in the back

Smell of cigarettes and air in the summer

Yeah you were yelling at the sky

Hair blowing back; I think this is freedom

[Chorus]

But thank you for a reason to stay, stay

I could have gone home with regrets

It's just how it is

Thank you for a generous sign, sign

That you'd go to these great lengths

While I'm lined...

[Verse 2]

Yeah I was sitting in the back

Pretending not to listen to your conversation

Yeah you were trying not to cry

Telling him the reasons that you had to leave him

[Chorus]

Thank you for a reason to stay, stay

I could have gone home with regrets

It's just how it is

Thank you for a generous sign, sign

That you'd go to these great lengths

While I'm behind you

[Final Chorus]

Thank you for a reason to stay, stay

I could have gone home with regrets

It's just how it is

Thank you for a generous sign, sign

That you'd go to these great lengths

While I'm behind you
