I've thought about it for a while   and I've thought about the many miles   but I think it's time that I've gone away   the feelings that you have for me   have gone away it's plain to see   and it looks to me that your pulling away      I'm gonna pick it up   I'm gonna pick it up today   I'm bound pack it up   I'm bound pack it up and go away      I've found it hard to say to you   that this is what I have to do   but there is no way that I'm gonna stay   there are so many things you need to know   and I wanna tell you before I go   but it's hard to think of just what to say      I'm gonna pick it up   I'm gonna pick it up today   I'm bound pack it up   I'm bound pack it up and go away      I'm sorry to leave you all alone   you're sitting silent by the phone   but we'd always known there would come a day   the bus is warm and softly lit    and a hundred people ride in it   I guess I'm just another runaway      I'm gonna pick it up   I'm gonna pick it up today   I'm bound pack it up   I'm bound pack it up and go away
