it was late at night
and the streets were wet
we were drivin in his car
he was tellin´ me how we first met met
in a downtown austin bar
i told him i remember the beer
and maybe i owed him a debt
but there´s times and lovers in my past
that I´d sooner forget
he´s my brother´s friend from San Jose´
that i never liked a lot
an anxious little mother´s boy
a recent divorce´
(chorus)
i don´t want to see, what´s become of me
I´m a refugee, with a primrose pedigree
i should get out of here
before i volunteer, let´s make it perfectly clear
where do we go from here
we drove to a dinner and i had a smoke
he ordered a cheap cabriolet
i told him i couldn´t stay out too late
but i was glad to get away
he asked me ´bout my life so far
i told him my husband way away
as he put his hand on the hem of my skirt
i should´a turned away
he said i needed a change of scene
i hoped he was sincere
but the more he talked
all i could hear was
where do we go from here
(chorus)
i don´t want to see, what´s become of me
I´m a refugee, with a primrose pedigree
i should get out of here, just disappear
before i volunteer, lets make it perfectly clear
where do we go from here
where do we go
where do we go
lets make it perfectly clear
before i volunteer
where do we go from here
