Linzi left me cold one night for Las Vegas,
Left a letter saying she saw no future here
Said she had a job singing to losers
Who dream of getting laid
That we were to distant,
And it was becoming suffocating clear
It was stupid to make
All those plans that we made

Now I wake up crying remembering us walking out in the moonlight
And I feel that's all over now... And I should just got to let it go

I don't hate Linzi,
That would make me an even bigger fool
She was bright and strong wille
And live her life her own way
I must've not fit it into her simple system,
She must've lost control
Now every morning has been so much harder to face

Cause I still hang onto the promise that she wrote in the moonlight
But it'll just have to wait, cause...

Linzi's has obtained control, got her adjusted life in order
I bet she's cruising in her Mercedes, lost in the casino lights
Linzi's may be on a roll, but nothing lasts forever
Yet that lady keeps splurging now cause she's kicking it tonight

Linzi went on to say she'd call me,
But I have yet to hear a thing
Yet I still pray Mrs. Katerndahl is holding up
Now as I walk up and down breathing the ocean air
Here on it's shoreline, the guilt weighs so much here

Linzi when you coming home?

Linzi's face always glowed, I used to love how she was together
Yet somewhere I went wrong and now she's under The Bright Lights
Linzi's staying on a roll, I think of her smiling forever
Her life so adjusted, While I lay sleepless at night

I should be happy for you Linzi
But how badly do I want you home?
