Anywhere but Here

Man I hate you found me here, whiskey on my breath

I know I should be ashamed, so much for those twelve steps

He said "No my son, I know you're doing your best

With all you've been through, I understand

I only came to offer you a friend

You know she still asks about you

Wondering how you're doing and where you've been

Tell her I'm in Tampa on the causeway, watching the waves roll in

Tell her I'm in Aspen, in a cabin, finding myself again

Tell her that I'm happy and I've moved on

Better than I've ever been

Just don't tell her that you saw me drowning in this bottle

Trying to make her disappear

Tell her I'm anywhere, anywhere but here

It would only break her heart if she knew the truth

You see I told her when she left, this is the last thing I would do

Tomorrow, I swear I'm starting over again

I've made it so far and I know where this ends

But she doesn't have to find out where I am

So if you see her or hear from her again

Tell her I'm in Baton Rouge, Louisiana

Selling cars five days a week

Tell her I'm in Mobile Alabama

Getting back on my feet

Tell her that I'm happy and I've moved on

Looking better than you've ever seen

Just don't tell her that you saw me drowning in this bottle

Trying to make her disappear

Tell her I'm anywhere, anywhere but here

Tell her that I'm happy and I've moved on

And let her know that I still care

Tell her I'm anywhere, anywhere but here
