This Is Where I Get Off Lyrics
The Earth keeps on shaking but I'm standing still
The chances I'm taking against my will
When we made it to the top we watched it fall, couldn't stop
But everything you leave behind catches up in another time
So just pull over to the side of the road
This is where I get off
This is where I move on
I know where I went wrong along the way
Along the way
Walking out on the boys was never the plan
We drifted off course couldn't strike up the band
We'd been working the graveyard shift, I wonder do you catch my drift
This was trouble in the making, but it's a risk well worth taking
So just pull over to the side of the road
This is where I get off
This is where I move on
I know where I went wrong along the way, oh
This is where I get off
This ain't where I belong
Somebody done me wrong, along the way
Along the way
So just pull over to the side of the road
This is where I get off
This is where I move on
I know where I went wrong along the way
This is where I get off
This ain't where I belong
Somebody done me wrong
Along the way, along the way
Along the way, along the way
Along the way
The chances I'm taking against my will
When we made it to the top we watched it fall, couldn't stop
But everything you leave behind catches up in another time
This is where I get off
This is where I move on
Along the way
We drifted off course couldn't strike up the band
We'd been working the graveyard shift, I wonder do you catch my drift
This was trouble in the making, but it's a risk well worth taking
This is where I get off
This is where I move on
This ain't where I belong
Somebody done me wrong, along the way
Along the way
This is where I get off
This is where I move on
I know where I went wrong along the way
This is where I get off
This ain't where I belong
Somebody done me wrong
Along the way, along the way
Along the way, along the way
Along the way

"When we made it to the top we watched it fall couldn't stop" and "Walking out on the boys was never the plan, we drifted off course couldn't strike up the band"
These lines seem like a reference to "The Band", their fame, failures, and breakup.
The song has a lot of sadness in it, I think.
