Text: Kathleen Edwards. Back to Me. Away.

I remember the way
Driving home late
Speeding all the way
Alone in the rain

I was rehearsing a part
From down at the bar
My mouth smelled like a drink
We were laughing, I think

I've been away
I've been away
I've been away

Do you pick up your phone?
Do you check your mail?
Do you answer your door
Even if it's late?

'Cause I don't know who to call
I don't know who to write
And I think I forgot
What your face looks like

I've been away
I've been away
I've been away

Do you think I've changed?
I swear I never tried
Memory is terrible thing
When you use it right

I was rehearsing a part
From down at the bar
My mouth smelled like a drink
We were laughing, I think

I've been away
I've been away
I've been away

I've been away
I've been away
I've been away
