Buckdancer's Choice |
| Shoot the street light out |
| Leave the porch light on |
| Give away a shout |
| From whoever’s side you’re on; |
| Bury every hope you ever dreamed of |
| Deep enough so that no dogs come around |
| There’s a loose thread at your seam Love |
| And a fire taking hold of your gown |
| If only this time I was wrong |
| If only you were here |
| If I was only half as strong |
| If just tonight a mile |
| Was only half as long… |
| Then I could walk from here |
| I could walk from here |
| I call your name |
| From the vacant lot |
| Don’t pretend a love you would betray |
| And don’t think for a moment I would not; |
| And if you catch me leaning back |
| I had some leaning back to do |
| I’m still standing on the track |
| With my blind-side facing you |
| If only this time I was wrong |
| If only you were here |
| If I was only half as strong |
| If just tonight a mile |
| Was only half as long… |
| Then I could walk on by |
| I could walk on by |
| If I took the liberty of your voice |
| You’d left ringing in my ear |
| And I gave Buckdancer’s choice |
| To myself for all to hear; |
| Well, I’d tell myself all the things |
| That you never would |
| And I would forgive |
| All you never could |
| If only this time I was wrong |
| If only you were here |
| If I was only half as strong |
| If just tonight a mile |
| Was only half as long… |
| Then I’ll be home by now |
| I’ll be home by now |
