To Jackson Songtext
von The Cribs

You′re getting away from yourself
You're getting away.
You′re getting away from yourself
You're getting away.

I saw something pretty today,
The sky was just running away.
I think I was supposed to be scared,
But I'm feeling OK.

Got to the time when you′d walk,
Now it′s late in the day,
I'll look for cigarette butts
You threw away.
I never saw you looking behind,
Now I know I don′t mind.


You're getting away from yourself
You′re getting away.
You're getting away from yourself
You′re getting away.

I'm thinking that you left me behind,
So I've nothing to say but
Get yourself through the day
Then fall away.
I missed out once in my life
Now I know I don′t mind.
It got to the time when you′d walk,
After only one day,
I look for cigarette butts you threw away.
I missed out once in my life
Now I know I don't mind.
