Sadness on Route 16

(verse 1)

he drove me all the way out here

to find that love wasn't there

we were on two separate pages

I wanted jokes and the night changes

I wanted love, but he wants a collection

then he saw my reaction

and it was the last time

(chorus)

there's so much to unpack here, sadness on route 16

I want to want him but then again I don't know, don't know where he has been

some more, some more tell me what you've seen

I swear still, it's too late

changed my mind, no second date

I was foolishly, hoping there was happiness on route 16

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

he turned off the radio

opened the back car door

told me get in

I don't live in sin

I want commitment

he wants the opposite

if I could I'd bike back

but I have to bite it

(chorus)

if I had known I would have gone to route 16

his intentions were hidden and then, and then my innocence

some more, some more left me washed up

it's not my fault, you're not on my side

don't be like that, a jerk on the outside

let me breathe, I just want to live away from route 16

(end chorus)

(bridge)

I've cried lots of tears in your passenger seat

you sigh like you're tired and beat

I put on a front and look out the window glass

I'd like some fresh air, but I'll have to pass

(chorus)

there's so much to unpack here, sadness on route 16

I want to want him but then again I don't know, don't know where he has been

some more, some more tell me what you've seen

I swear still, it's too late

changed my mind, no second date

I was foolishly, hoping there was happiness on route 16

it's not my fault, you're not on my side

don't be like that, a jerk on the outside

let me breathe, I just want to live away from route 16

I swear still, it's too late

changed my mind, no second date

I was foolishly, hoping there was happiness on route 16

(end chorus)
