Last Girl Standing Lyrics

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
