It's gray cold tonight on Rt 206
And I'm the only car on the road
Got the pines all to myself my own private little hell
Where else I would go I don't know
Michelle went to college and then she didn't come back
She's the only girl I will ever love I suspect
Wish I could spin a story about the memories in these walls
But even if they could talk they wouldn't say anything at all
And all the kids who realized that vanished long before I could
Michelle you'll never know and I guess you never should
But I would have done it all with you if I had had the nerve
And I hope you're somewhere better off loving someone you deserve
It ain't a homecoming
It's a crash landing
When you start understanding
That you're last girl standing in this town
The Waterloo turned over I guess six or seven times
And remember Mrs Rossum? Well she just turned eighty nine
Back behind the parking lot where we used to get high
They're building up these houses that'll never be able to buy
And I guess you just don't care haven't been back in six years
But I need someone out there to know that I'm still here
It ain't a homecoming
It's a crash landing
When you start understanding
That you're last girl standing
And I hope you love the city
I'm not looking for your pity
Just gettin' older understanding
That I'm the last girl standing in this town
It's gray cold tonight on Rt 206
And I'm the only car on the road
