lyrics

I don't know anymore
If the boy I was still wants to be the man that I'm supposed to be
So I'll stop the car
Catch an hour's sleep
Dream of love inside the driver's seat
I have 10 hours more
Before a hotel bed
Guides me back to where I know

That I will be waiting outside of the gates of Hell
With no promise of our redemption
What I can promise I’ll fight back what brought us here
The demons of our distanced love

Across the state or further west
Our past is falling out between our hands
On my knees and begging for forgiveness
Please just listen because I’m laying my heart out for all to see

I want to be with you
(And I will be waiting and I will be waiting here)
From feet to chest to bone
But I want to do it right
(And I will be waiting and I will be waiting here)
Like I should have all those years ago

I’ve seen the beauty of this love
It comes from our dark times
I made myself a mission
I’m starting over

Running through the tall grass
Across the bay onto the isthmus
Was the point at which I knew I wanted every piece of you
The sleeping towns we drove around
Will never hear our song again
But it plays for every memory
Of a perfect goodnight kiss
I will find you someday
