Vacation From Love

My phone is off
I’m morning drunk
The place is a mess
I’m doing whatever I want

No one’s asking for dinner
No one’s getting upset
I’m reminded again
Of who I was when we met

Vacation from love
Vacation from love
Vacation from love
I’m on vacation

How I’ve missed my friends
How I’ve missed silence
Those thoughts that just don’t come
When you’re next to someone

I’m writing a lot
Catching up on smut
My dreams have returned
Telling me: Watch out

Vacation from love
Vacation from love
Vacation from love
I’m on vacation

You fell in love with a loner
You fell in love with a stoner
You want to see me everyday
And still expect a boner

Miserable couples on the bus
We used to say: Thank God that’s not us
Now I’m hiding out
Trying to figure it out

Vacation from love
Vacation from love
Vacation from love
I’m on vacation

I keep picturing your face
In the hall at my old place
When I’d open the door
I couldn’t ask for more

But new silence brings
Joy like once brought company
When loneliness sets in
Do it all again

Vacation from love
Vacation from love
Vacation from love
I’m on vacation

It may be a sad fate
For one who needs so much space
But the wiring is done
Maybe I’ll find the right one

Again I’ve done something wrong
You’re mad that I don’t respond
But I’m on vacation
Vacation from love

Vacation from love
Vacation from love
Vacation from love
I’m on vacation
