Long Ride Home

Long Ride Home
I broke out my favorite shirt and watched the time fly by
She runs with no one but always offers a smile
All we ever do is walk fine lines between
The things we know we want and exactly wForget about your worries
they will be waiting for you in the morning
And we drive
It seems like miles
But we've barely left the drive way
And this silence is more than I can take
I just don't know what to say
Love struck hearts filtered by the sound of passing cars
Until you broke the silence looked into my eyes
And softly whispered
"Slip away with me tonight"
Forget about your worries they'll be waiting for you in the morning
Watch the sun set here with me
Don't promise that we'll last forever
Just swear that you'll remember me
Cry all night it doesn't make it right
But it doesn't make it any worse
And you wrote it all down here in this letter
A list about a mile long of everything I've done
And I'm at a loss
I never figured that this day would come
But if you need an answer I'll take your letter
Please take me home
And I'll write down the words that you whispered in my ear that made me cry
"Slip away with me tonight"
Forget about your worries they'll be waiting for you in the morning
Watch the sun set here with me
Don't promise that we'll last forever
Just swear that you'll remember me
Forget about you problems
Forget about your inabitions
Forget about your problems
Cause only fools believe in them
I cry for you
Tears that only love can bring
I cry for you
And let you look inside of me
Slip away with me tonight
Don't promise that we'll last forever
Just swear that you'll remember me
hat we think we need
I'm chasing something that may not even exist

You tell me
Does it blow your mind daily?
Are you scared that you've no destination?
You tell me
Will they be forced to take us away screaming?
Oh no I'm in no shape to go
This hoodie is my bullet proof vest
This hardly scratches the surface
I make a point to leave you wanting more
Don't what they're searching
Some like to call it hope
I've seen folks find it in their families
While others in a weekend on the beach
Whatever helps you take it easy is good enough for me
Tell me all about your new friends
The cool things that we do sometimes can mean as little or as much as we want
Tell me about before I knew you
I hope I've made a difference in your life
Significant enough to cross your mind at night
