Lyrics Never Going Home - Maggie Rogers

Smooth out the lines on my face in the mirror
And think about where I'm gonna go
Put on my red lipstick like a hero
And swallow the fear down my throat

There's old music playing, I can hear my friends saying
"There's ten seconds 'til it's time to go"
So I put on those old heeled boots, they've been waiting
At the bottom of the closet alone

I can't behave, but I don't want to be alone
But you kept me waiting, now I'm never, ever going home
Never going home

Never going home

Walk in and the world starts turning
I can't help looking for you at the bar
Catch a glimpse of someone with kind eyes, dancing
Whose jacket's the same color as the seats in your car

There's old music playing, I can hear my friends saying
"You know it's time to go, go, go, go, go"
Can you jump off the cliff? I know that you can handle it
And time's got a way of letting you know

I can't behave, but I don't want to be alone
But you kept me waiting, now I'm never, ever going home
Never going

I can't believe that you'd rather be on your own
But you kept me waiting, now I'm never, ever going home
Never going home

Never going home
Never going home (alright)

We get to talking, but those lips aren't your lips
We lean together, those hips aren't your hips
When we're out in the back and I'm catching my breath
I close my eyes to forget all the rest, oh

I can't behave, but I don't want to be alone
No, you kept me waiting, now I'm never, ever going home
Never going

I can't believe that you'd rather be on your own
But you kept me waiting, now I'm never, ever going home
Never going home

I'm never, ever going home
Never going home
I'm never, ever going home
Never going home
