And I swear it's the last time and I swear it's my last try 
and we'll walk in circles around this whole block 
walk on the cracks of the same old sidewalks 
then we'll talk about leaving town 
yeah we'll talk about leaving 
I swear it's the last time, and I swear it's my last try 

We rode across that bridge all night 
we talked our way through city lights 
traced all the lines, we're killing time 
under those buzzing signs 
from downtown to anywhere but here 
tonight, yeah, I swear to these rooftops 
and just hoped that car would never stop 

[Chorus:] 
And I swear it's the last time and I swear it's my last try 
and we'll walk in circles around this whole block 
walk on the cracks of the same old sidewalks 
and we'll talk about leaving town 
and we'll talk about leaving 
I swear it's the last time and I swear it's my last try 

We drove around this place all night 
past closed signs and familiar sights 
we're moving by, passing time 
counting those center lines 
with 20,000 lines left to go 
that lead to somewhere I don't know 
it might be the time that we leave this all behind 

[Chorus] 

And there's been a few times 
that we thought it felt right 
to take all the westbound signs 
and just leave town tonight 

And I swear it's the last time and I swear it's my last try 
and we'll walk in circles around this whole block 
walk on the cracks of the same old sidewalks 
and we'll talk about leaving town 
yeah we'll talk about leaving 
I swear it's the last time and I swear it's my last try 
and I swear it's my last try 
and we'll talk about leaving town 
and we'll talk about leaving town
