She calls me from the car
|
idling in the rain
|
and tells me it's too hard
|
to handle all the pain
|
the pain of wanting more
|
and me wanting the same
|
I throw on my shoes
|
I run outside
|
and she's gone
|
|
all the things going through my head
|
all the things that I left unsaid
|
I'm soaking wet now but I don't care
|
where we'll end up I don't know where
|
but we could
|
|
Get there
|
cause with you I'm not scared
|
just tell me that this thing is not dead
|
girl I'm ready for the road ahead
|
I know we could get there
|
|
I call her from my car
|
racing in the rain
|
having conversations with
|
with her answering machine
|
if I'd paid more attention I'd know
|
all the places she might go
|
but I'm blindly swinging in the wind
|
cause of how blind I have been
|
|
all the things going through my head
|
all the signs that I should have read
|
I'm going down now but you don't care
|
I know I deserve this and it's only fair
|
but we could
|
|
get there
|
|
(don't give up on me)
|
cause with you I'm not scared
|
(baby took so long for me to see)
|
oh but tell me that this thing is not dead
|
girl I'm ready for the road ahead
|
I know we could get there (I promise we'll get there)
|
|
I'm sorry that it took so long
|
I don't know why I didn't catch on
|
oh girl I wasn't listening to you
|
when you told me that we needed to talk
|
told you "later" and I brushed you off
|
oh girl (I wish I could undo) all the bridges I burned
|
and I lived and I learned
|
you're the one thing I had that was true
|
and I know what I had
|
only now that you're gone
|
I'm a shell of a man without you
|
but we could (but with you I'll get there)
|
|
get there
|
(I'll get there
|
took me so long to see)
|
cause with you I'm not scared (I'm not scared)
|
just tell me that this thing is not dead
|
I'm ready for the road ahead
|
I know we could get there (with you I'll get there)
|
(I know we could get there you and me)
|
|
but we could get there (I'll get there)
|
cause with you I'm not scared (tell me)
|
tell me that this thing is not dead
|
girl I'm ready for the road ahead
|
I know we could get there
|
(tell me that you wanna make this work)
|
(tell me that I can change the way you're hurt)
|
(I just wanna be with you)
|
