Would you wait if I came running home to you?
|
Or if I moved right down the street a block or two?
|
Distance is never on our side
|
It only seems to make our dreams collide
|
And you have gone on to someone new
|
|
Would you wait if I wrote you a perfect song tonight?
|
To make your heart stand still and make your chest grow tight
|
But I'll never write a perfect line
|
And I don't know why I even waste my time and try, whoa
|
|
And for the longest time
|
I couldn't love her to save my life
|
Never a moment of peace in my mind, yeah
|
Cause in the longest line
|
The front and the back are the same sometimes
|
And taking a number has taken my time, whoa
|
|
And there are things that I don't have the patience for
|
And when I go to my room I leave an open door
|
Cause I can't stand to feel alone
|
And when you come around I'm feeling more at home, whoa
|
|
And for the longest time
|
I couldn't love her to save my life
|
Never a moment of peace in my mind, yeah
|
Cause in the longest line
|
The front and the back are the same sometimes
|
And taking a number has taken my time, whoa
|
|
Don't pass me by
|
Give me another chance tonight
|
To make your heavy heart so light that you can fly
|
Cause every time
|
I see the light behind your eyes
|
The whole thing catches me in a moment by surprise
|
|
And for the longest time
|
I couldn't love her to save my life
|
Never a moment of peace in my mind, yeah
|
Cause in the longest line
|
The front and the back are the same sometimes
|
And taking a number has taken my time, whoa, whoa
|
|
And for the longest time
|
I couldn't love her to save my life
|
Never a moment of peace in my mind, whoa
|
(Don't pass me by)
|
Yeah, cause in the longest line
|
The front and the back are the same sometimes
|
And taking a number has taken my time, whoa
|
(Don't pass me by)
|
|
And for the longest time
|
I couldn't love her to save my life
|
Never a moment of peace in my mind, whoa
|
(Don't pass me by)
|
Yeah, cause in the longest line
|
The front and the back are the same sometimes
|
And taking a number has taken my time, whoa
|
(Don't pass me by)
