It was warm in the middle of December
The wind blew dust across my car
Well we stayed up and drank in the parking lot
I never said it but I loved you long before
Whistling eyes had pierced through the darkness
Loud and unforgiving was her tune
Carolina moonshine from dusty roads
It wasn't til then that I said I'm leaving soon
Gonna leave the ides of the month
Gonna meet somebody who's as anxious as me
Someone who understands how sad I can be
Haven't ever truly felt at home
Walls that would crumble in a moment
Passerby's throwing paper planes
Always knew there was a better place
Never thought It'd be in your hands
Christmas lights laid boundaries in the twilight
Purple skies that kissed the purest snow
We sat by the fire and sang sad songs
Cause in the morning you knew I had to go
Gonna leave the ides of the month
Gonna meet somebody who's as anxious as me
Someone who understands how sad I can be
Haven't ever truly felt at home
Gonna leave the ides of the month
Gonna meet somebody who's as anxious as me
Someone who understands how sad I can be
Haven't ever truly felt at home
