Verse
Came through the door at a quarter past two
Started explaining before I asked you
Smelled like smoke and not my perfume
I knew right then what I had to do
Pre-Chorus
By sunrise, I was packing things up fast
You slept while your future became your past
Chorus
My picture is gone from beside your bed
My boots and boxes line the front step
You keep on talking, still making your case
I’m taking each piece of me from this place
Packing my car in your favorite sundress
And letting my keys [claps] do the rest
Verse
Told all my friends you were gonna change
Kept all your secrets, took half of the blame
Thought I’d always take your side
Now just watch the love of your life drive
Pre-Chorus
One last box, then I’m closing the door
You say you’re sorry — heard it before
Chorus
My dresses are gone, the closet looks bare
My perfume’s the last thing left in the air
You keep on begging, asking me to stay
I’m taking the last of my love away
Behind the wheel in your favorite sundress
And letting my keys [claps] do the rest
Bridge
You thought I’d break, you thought I’d stay
But the love you had is driving away
Yeah, the joke’s on you, the road is mine
And I’m leaving only you behind
Chorus
My hands on the wheel, my heart running free
My whole life ahead looks damn good on me
I’m done letting your wild ways call my name
I drive away, you’ve got yourself to blame
Starting my life in your favorite sundress
And letting my keys [claps] do the rest
Outro
Slipped on your favorite sundress
And my keys [claps] did the rest
