[Verse 1] You said you’d call when the courthouse closed But the afternoon went quiet and the deadline froze I found your note by the telephone Three plain words saying you were gone [Verse 2] I took the northbound train past Halsted Street With a folded map and a restless beat Every face in the window looked just like mine Trying to leave one trouble behind [Chorus] You can run from a promise, you can change your name But a heart keeps records that don’t wash away I’m not begging for mercy, I’m not laying blame I’m walking out stronger from the wreckage you made [Verse 3] At the union hall, I heard your brother speak Said you’d been hiding out for nearly a week He handed me a key and a worn-out file Said, “She left this for you, and she signed it with a smile” [Bridge] Now the case is closed, and the facts are clear I lost what I wanted, not what I feared There’s a long road north and a train at nine I’ll carry my name and leave yours behind [Chorus] You can run from a promise, you can change your name But a heart keeps records that don’t wash away I’m not begging for mercy, I’m not laying blame I’m walking out stronger from the wreckage you made [Outro] The bell rings once, the platform clears I leave your story with the wasted years No looking back, no borrowed time I’m walking out stronger, and the next step is mine
