Feathers for Bakersfield

You wanna know why she had to go
 You're not the only one who's looking for an answer
 If she could tell you what you want to know
 You wouldn't be here at all, so go and ask her
 You ain't seen nothing until it turns around and leaves you
 You see it coming until it finally catches up with you
 But the same is true for everyone
 There's some things you can't walk away from
 She's not your lover, don't pick up the phone
 There's someone else already there to lay beside her
 You waited long enough, now go on home
 You wait tomorrow but you'll still feel just as tired and alone
 You ain't seen nothing until it turns around and leaves you
 You see it coming until it finally catches up with you
 But the same is true for everyone
 There's some things you can't walk away from
 Walk away from
