oh I imagine
I've broken a couple of hearts
sure I've had moments
sudden feelin' hit me too hard

I don't wanna be bitter anymore
wanna let the sunshine in my door
I don't wanna be too happy
just enough to keep me goin'

cause it won't feel like home
without something to hold me back
without something to pull behind me
no it won't be the same
without a reason to say goodbye
without a reason to cry

I've clung to the anchor
when they tried to be my rescue
and I've taken the wrong turn on occasion
I could see the thing come crashin' down
there was nothin' left there anyhow
I don't wanna be too happy
just enough to tide me over

cause it won't feel like home
without something to hold me back
without something to pull behind me
no it won't be the same
without a reason to say goodbye
without a reason to cry
