As I wake up alone, after years of playing musical homes,
|
I am not really sure, 'cause it's all such a blur,
|
But I think I'll be home in the fall
|
And as my friends live and breathe,
|
It seems they're doing just fine without me
|
'Cause I walk like a ghost without what meant the most to me
|
Back before I had it all
|
|
And it's minutes to hours and hours to days,
|
It's cradles then taxes then caskets then graves
|
But you've got your own world to burn -
|
Don't wait for me, don't wait for me
|
|
And I was feeling alright
|
It was just me and Jack Daniel's tonight,
|
And I appreciated his company the same
|
It reminded me of Tennessee
|
|
And it's minutes to hours and hours to days,
|
It's cradles then taxes then caskets then graves
|
On these city streets we can't stop for a while,
|
We just live out our lives every mile after mile
|
But you've got your own world to burn -
|
Don't wait for me, don't wait for me
|
Don't wait for me
|
|
I'd fly to your arms if only I can move
|
And I'd find a way through the turbulent sky
|
'Cause I know and you know there's nothing to prove
|
This distance ain't only in miles
|
|
And it's minutes to hours and hours to days
|
It's cradles then taxes then caskets then graves
|
On these city streets we can't stop for a while
|
We just live out our life every mile after mile
|
But you've got your own world to burn -
|
Don't wait for me, don't wait for me
|
Don't wait for me, don't wait for me
|
|
So I guess this is the dream,
|
But no one said it'd be such a machine.
