free girl from girls by columbus

when she gets what she wants but is still sad

lyrics:
now that she's free she's out every night
she drinks until 3 and turns out the light
in two minutes time she's out like a light
and she's dreaming of her boy again

how many times did she say to me
it's not what you say it's whether you succeed
well the next time she reads a letter from me
i'll be leaving for the coast again

and oh she was stoked
to me on her own
but now that she's a free girl
oh she's sad nobody calls
and i don't know what to say to her
when she calls me on the phone
except no, no, no, no, no, no girl
it was never your fault

she was alone for maybe a day
she hated the hours
and she could not spend the pay
but now that she's found
that it's lonely here in town
she don't want to be free
but that's the way it should be

and oh she was stoked
to me on her own
but now that she's a free girl
oh she's sad nobody calls
and i don't know what to say to her
when she calls me on the phone
except no, no, no, no, no, no girl
it was never your fault

it was not your fault
you did nothing wrong
you said what you wanted
but your timing was off
and now that you've found
that it's lonely in town
you don't want to be free
but that's the way it should be
