She packed that party act,
Dia siap-siap dengan semua barangnya,
Like a pack rat piled high with paper sacks.
Kayak tikus yang nyimpen banyak kantong kertas.
Two quarts of oil, her calico cat:
Dua liter minyak, kucing belangnya:
Man, I never seen a woman get so mad.
Bro, aku belum pernah lihat cewek marah segitu.

She caught me by surprise,
Dia bikin aku terkejut,
When goodbye rang into the night like a steel wind chime.
Saat perpisahan terdengar di malam seperti lonceng angin dari besi.
Caught in a storm that was gettin' worse.
Terjebak dalam badai yang semakin parah.
An' she just grabbed purse:
Dan dia langsung ambil tasnya:
I can't believe she said it first.
Aku nggak percaya dia yang bilang duluan.

'Cause I was gonna leave tomorrow anyway.
Soalnya aku memang mau pergi besok juga.
I had my car all gassed up,
Mobilku udah penuh bensin,
Everything was all in place.
Semua udah siap.
I let her have her glory, then her faith,
Aku kasih dia kebanggaan, lalu kepercayaannya,
My heart will break an' that's ok.
Hatiku bakal hancur, dan itu nggak apa-apa.
I was gonna leave tomorrow anyway.
Aku memang mau pergi besok juga.

I watched her tail lights disappear,
Aku lihat lampu belakangnya menghilang,
Grabbed a beer, chucked it down so my eyes could clear.
Ambil bir, minum supaya mataku bisa fokus.
An' fear appeared.
Dan ketakutan muncul.
An' suddenly silence was the only thing my heart could hear.
Dan tiba-tiba kesunyian jadi satu-satunya yang bisa didengar hatiku.
An' this room is a tomb with empty walls, a broken broom.
Dan ruangan ini seperti kuburan dengan dinding kosong, sapu yang patah.
With marks of leavin' on the floor,
Ada jejak pergi di lantai,
Made by her shoes,
Dari sepatu-sepatunya,
Like she knew what I was gonna do.
Seolah dia tahu apa yang akan aku lakukan.
Still, I can't believe she left so soon.
Tetap saja, aku nggak percaya dia pergi begitu cepat.

'Cause I was gonna leave tomorrow anyway.
Soalnya aku memang mau pergi besok juga.
I had my car all gassed up,
Mobilku udah penuh bensin,
Everything was all in place.
Semua udah siap.
I let her have her glory, then her faith,
Aku kasih dia kebanggaan, lalu kepercayaannya,
My heart will break an' that's ok.
Hatiku bakal hancur, dan itu nggak apa-apa.
I was gonna leave tomorrow anyway.
Aku memang mau pergi besok juga.

I bet she's somewhere between, Alberquerque, Amarillo.
Aku yakin dia sekarang di antara, Alberquerque, Amarillo.
Even at our favorite cafe:
Bahkan di kafe favorit kita:
I wish I had the guts to call.
Aku berharap aku punya keberanian untuk menelepon.
Just so she could hear me say.
Supaya dia bisa dengar aku bilang.

'Cause I was gonna leave tomorrow anyway.
Soalnya aku memang mau pergi besok juga.
I had my car all gassed up,
Mobilku udah penuh bensin,
Everything was all in place.
Semua udah siap.
I let her have her glory, then her faith,
Aku kasih dia kebanggaan, lalu kepercayaannya,
My heart will break an' that's ok.
Hatiku bakal hancur, dan itu nggak apa-apa.
I was gonna leave tomorrow,
Aku memang mau pergi besok,
I was gonna leave tomorrow anyway, yeah.
Aku memang mau pergi besok juga, yeah.
Oooh.
Oooh.
