Description: From the stage play Squat Until We Rot: A Rock Opera in Two Acts.

First of all, there is way to much delay in the vocal. I started writing this two days on Sunday and two days later, recorded it, I wanted to write a crying in your beer song for my new band. The first lyrics were supposed to be nonsense lyrics to guide the melody but I wrote a line about the subject leaving with a newborn son, so I began writing from the man's perspective and I asked myself, what would motivate a woman to leave with a newborn? So the song almost wrote itself after that.

Tomorrow you'll be leaving and I can't stop you
Leavin with my heart and our little infant son
Yes tomorrow youll both be gone
And I'll start my grieving
And to think it was just  a few months ago you said I would always be the one
Guess I should have showered you with gold and diamonds
Or at the very  least some kind of weddin  ring/band 
I know I should have done much better
But the lie that I tell myself is I am doing the best I can (tense?) 

CHORUS
By tomorrow, you'll be a thousand miles away
If I only I could find the words Id be beggin you to stay


I still can’t believe that you’re a thousand miles away
It's too late for me. I made my bed and in my bed I'll stay 
All the promises I made I broke each and every one
The women, the bottle, I let you down But I  never thought you’d run

now you’re three  thousand miles away and I'm still drinking
I know I should have changed my way but that's not my way of thinking
Three  thousand miles away, I can't stay sober
My heart tells me I can find a way but my mind tells me it's over
