[00:00.00]Never Coming Home -Sting
[00:07.430]Written by ：Sting
[00:14.878]Well it's five in the morning and the light's already broken
[00:18.663]And the rainy streets are empty for nobody else has woken
[00:22.407]Yet you turn towards the window as he sleeps beneath the covers
[00:26.135]And you wonder what he's dreaming in his slumbers
[00:29.382]There's a clock upon the table and it's burning up the hour
[00:33.386]And you feel your life is shrinking
[00:35.260]Like the petals of a flower
[00:37.265]As you creep towards the closet
[00:38.976]You're so careful not to wake him
[00:41.234]And you choose the cotton dress you bought last summer
[00:44.919]There's a time of indecision between the bedroom and the door
[00:48.287]But the part of you that
[00:49.500]Knows that you can't take it any more
[00:52.291]There's the promise of the future in the creaking of the floor
[00:56.05]And you're torn if you should leave him with a number
[01:00.181]And in your imagination you're a thousand miles away
[01:03.477]Because too many of his promises got broken on the way
[01:07.213]So you write it in a letter
[01:09.21]All the things you couldn't say
[01:11.220]And you tell him that you're never coming home
[01:15.548]She starts running for the railway station
[01:17.128]Praying that her calculation's right
[01:19.264]And there's a train just waiting there
[01:20.558]To get her to the city before night
[01:22.536]A place to sleep a place to stay will
[01:24.763]Get her through another day
[01:26.398]She'll take a job she'll find a friend
[01:28.215]She'll make a life that's better
[01:30.226]The passengers ignore her just a girl
[01:32.599]With an umbrella
[01:33.616]And there's nothing they can do for her
[01:35.777]There's nothing they can tell her
[01:37.627]There's nothing they could ever say
[01:39.463]Would change the way she feels today
[01:41.441]She'd live the life she'd always dreamed
[01:43.322]If he had only let her imagination she's a million miles away
[01:48.930]When too many of his promises got broken on the way
[01:52.55]So she wrote it in a letter
[01:53.982]All the things she couldn't say
[01:56.132]And she told him she was never coming home
[01:59.748]She told him she was never coming home
[02:17.161]I wake up in an empty bed a road
[02:19.341]Drill hammers in my head
[02:20.805]I call her name there's no reply
[02:22.663]It's not like her to let me lie
[02:24.472]It's time for work it's time to go
[02:26.362]But something's different I don't know
[02:28.226]I need a cup of coffee I'll feel better
[02:32.11]I stumble to the bathroom door
[02:33.901]Her make up bag is on the floor
[02:35.734]It really is a mess this place
[02:37.709]It takes some time to shave my face
[02:39.684]I'm not really thinking straight
[02:41.278]She never lets me sleep this late
[02:43.205]I'm almost done and then I see the letter
[02:47.47]In his imagination she's a universe away
[02:50.676]Too many of his promises got broken on the way
[02:53.952]So she wrote it in a letter all things she couldn't say
[02:57.474]And she told him she was never coming home
[03:01.642]She told him she was never coming home
[03:05.315]She told him she was never coming home
[03:15.264]I'm gonna live my life
[03:17.36]I'm gonna live my life
[03:18.756]And she told him she was never coming home
[03:22.715]I'm gonna live my life
[03:24.632]I'm gonna live my life
[03:26.112]And she told him she was never coming home
[03:30.235]I'm gonna live my life
[03:32.54]I'm gonna live my life
[03:33.609]And she told him she was never coming home
[03:45.272]I'm gonna live my life
[03:47.06]I'm gonna live my life in my own
