my phone is off
I'm morning [bad word] 
the place is a mess
I'm doing whatever I want

no one's asking for dinner
no one's getting upset
I'm reminded again
of who I was when we met

vacation from love
vacation from love
vacation from love
I'm on vacation

how I've missed my friends
how I've missed silence
those thoughts that just [bad word] 
when you're next to someone 

I'm writing a lot
catching up on [bad word] 
my dreams have returned
telling me: watch out

vacation from love
vacation from love
vacation from love
I'm on vacation

you fell in love with a loner
you fell in love with a stoner
you want to see me everyday
and still expect a boner

miserable couples on the bus
we used to say: thank god that's not us
now I'm hiding out
trying to figure it out

vacation from love
vacation from love
vacation from love
I'm on vacation

I keep picturing your face
in the hall at my old place
when I'd open the door
I couldn't ask for more

but new silence brings
joy like once [bad word] 
when loneliness sets in 
do it all again

vacation from love
vacation from love
vacation from love
I'm on vacation

it may be a sad fate
for one who needs so much space
but the wiring is done
maybe I'll find the right one

again I've done something wrong
you're mad that I don't respond
but I'm on vacation 
vacation from love

vacation from love
vacation from love
vacation from love
I'm on vacation
