Backroads

I take the back roads home
So no one I know can see me this way
It's not that I'm ashamed
I just don't want you to know
Where it is I go or who I've been seeing
And what I've been seeing to

People always tell me
It's no way to live my life
I just keep reminding them
That I'm quite content on living a lie

Under you
And it's not because I'm mean
I just find it hard to sleep with the lights on
And it's not because I'm easy
So don't think that this means nothing to me
'Cause it means everything

I take the back roads home
So you think that I'm alone again
I've not been the same since
I followed you out that night
Left all I had behind in temporary flee
I've not got it in me

People always tell me
It's no way to live my life
I just keep reminding them
That I'm quite content on living a lie

Under you
And it's not because I'm mean
I just find it hard to sleep with the lights on
And it's not because I'm easy
So don't think that this means nothing to me

Don't think that this means nothing
