Used to be a ghost town
But even the ghosts got out
And the sound of the highway died
There's ashes in the swimming pool
And I saw you on your wedding night
And I watched you sleeping in my arms
You didn't wash you make-up off
Woke up looking scared as hell
My love won't change
My love won't change
My love won't change a thing
You're never coming back to me
You're never coming back at all
And the waiter made a young girl cry
At the table next to mine last night
And I know you would have brought him to his knees
But you're overseas
Doesn't seem so long ago we thought that we could change their minds
Stay here and fight it out
A love that we could weaponize
But I saw you losing faith and I was watching when the light went out
Know what revolution means
Know it's not an option now
My love won't change
My love won't change
Our love won't change a thing
I couldn't leave my father here
To finish up his life alone
And I saw you in our daughters eyes last night
When she caught me in a lie
And I need you here to make both of us believe
But you're overseas
Does your heart rest easy where you are?
And do they treat you like a star?
And do they call you refugee?
From overseas
