lyrics

She had reasons all her own
To pick up and to leave when the morning shone
Standing there in the Florida sun
With newborn baby in arms, she's run
Wedlock wars been waging on
She wore too many faces for way too long
The caring one not being cared for at all
Heads up the coastline where she belongs

And what you dreamed when you were young
Well it might not be when it's all said and done
So cross that doorway, you're already gone
Head up the coastline where you belong

Through rainy seasons and stormy nights
She'd wait up late for the love of her life
To come back home just to see his wife
And his beautiful child and to be a father for a night
Fairytale dreams are often left deceived
By all the broken promises he claimed he'd keep
But she'd put an end to all the pain she's known
Heads up the coastline she's coming back home

And what you dreamed when you were young
Well it might not be when it's all said and done
So cross that doorway, you're already gone
Head up the coastline where you belong
