Too Much Baggage

[Verse]
Your mood's a whirlwind spinning through the air
One second you’re here then you're nowhere
Tied to a promise you couldn’t keep
Now I’m stuck wide awake when I should be asleep

[Verse 2]
You said you're ready for a life with me
But your words fit loose like the leaves on a tree
I’ve been dragging my heart like a wagon wheel
Too heavy to push too numb to feel

[Chorus]
Too much baggage weighing me down
Like a suitcase lost in a lonesome town
Your love was a ticket but I missed my train
Now the tracks just echo with lonely pain

[Verse 3]
Saw forever shining in your eyes
Until the clouds rolled in and covered the skies
Your hands held my heart for the briefest time
Now they hold a stranger’s in some other rhyme

[Bridge]
Grasping for hope but it's slipping fast
Like a balloon let go can’t make it last
I’ve got chains on my chest like a necklace tight
Wishing it was love holding me tonight

[Chorus]
Too much baggage weighing me down
Like a suitcase lost in a lonesome town
Your love was a ticket but I missed my train
Now the tracks just echo with lonely pain
