She said, `I love you` like an apology
to herself. Or maybe it was for me
I could not tell
But she said it like she should have known better
She said `I`ll miss you` like some kind of promise
made from her head to her heart
not to forget
that these were soft hands
And she said `I`d wait for you
like a widow waits for sleep`
to hold a lover that she grieves
And a life together that they`de weaved
But more, she waits like I was something
to be waited for
[Chorus]
While I am leaving Atlanta
I am leaving this home
I am leaving Atlanta
I was already gone
But she holds on to hope
like its something she thinks she should keep and
So she starts making it hard for me to leave,
`Well if its any consolation`, she said,
`Its a lot harder to be left`
And she said, `it`s hard to live in this town
you have made your whole life in.`
Well I just sent you a letter. I guess it will be at least
3 days to `til you know your heart has been broken
[Chorus]
And she said `I`d wait for you
like a widow waits for sleep`
to hold a lover that she grieves
And a life together that they`de weaved
But more, she waits like I was something
to be waited for
