"Never Going Home" lyrics - 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

[Pre-Chorus:]
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

[Chorus:]
I can't behave, but I don't wanna 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

[Pre-Chorus:]
There's old music playing, I can hear my friend saying
"You know it's time to go, go, go, go, go"
Can you jump off a cliff? Find out that you can handle it
And time's got a way of letting you know

[Chorus:]
I can't behave, but I don't wanna 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

[Post-Chorus:]
I'm never going
I'm never going home (Alright)

[Bridge:]
You 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

[Chorus:]
I can't behave, but I don't wanna be alone
Oh, 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

[Outro:]
Never, ever going home, never going home
I'm never, ever going home, never going home
