| I don’t know
|
| or understand
|
| you say it’s hard right now.
|
| It’s in my head.
|
| Spending all my time.
|
| Keep you wide awake.
|
| It’s hard to know the ending yet,
|
| because your heart,
|
| right now,
|
| is in my hands.
|
| And it’s all I know,
|
| it’s all I can keep safe.
|
| So drive off the freeway,
|
| that wouldn’t kill you,
|
| it would only ease your worried mind.
|
| And take all your money
|
| I told you to spend it,
|
| you’ll never need anything.
|
| You and I.
|
| Climb every night in your burning tree.
|
| and keep you head up tight
|
| with your broken needs.
|
| And keep your guard up now,
|
| and you’ll only see it’s not the fighting time.
|
| Don’t go retreat.
|
| When you climb every night on your frozen peak,
|
| keep your eyes on mine with your broken needs
|
| and keep your arms up high,
|
| so that I can see the light.
|
| So drive off the freeway,
|
| that wouldn’t kill you,
|
| it would only ease your worried mind.
|
| And take all your money
|
| I told you to spend it,
|
| you’ll never need anything.
|
| You and I.
|
| Waiting on my own,
|
| waiting all this time.
|
| And won’t you tell me what I know,
|
| tell me what I want
|
| and tell me that will never change
|
| that will never change
|
| you’ll never turn your back again.
|
| Turn your back again.
|
| Never leave me all alone,
|
| leave me like you did
|
| and won’t you tell me what I know
|
| tell me what I want
|
| and tell me that will never change
|
| that will never change
|
| you’ll never turn your back again.
|
| Turn your back again.
|
| So drive off the freeway,
|
| that wouldn’t kill you,
|
| it would only ease your worried mind.
|
| And take all your money
|
| I told you to spend it,
|
| you’ll never need anything.
|
| You and I. |
