It's not for nothing if the feelings strong But I don't think that I could take it for long Standing there by the door outside An empty barroom on a Tuesday night Everybody wants a place to go Someone near enough to call their own Me, I'm just trying to stay inside I want to tell you every god damn time That it's you I love Even when it all comes down Could take a second, it could take all night I saw forever in your mourning eyes But there was something there too gone for me Looking back I knew it had to be I dreamt I saw you in the passing crowd Held out your hands as you were calling out Can't help you now, I couldn't help you then Beyond just telling you again and again That it's you I love Even when it all comes down

Come Summer 03:57
Slow down when it rains as you're driving into town There's a curve right before the school that you'll be coming around When you see her won't you tell her that I really cared? She was nothing I was after for those reasons that she said Won't you send me a card? Come summer I'll be lonely God knows I'll be lonely Well, everything I've ever thought of, I'm thinking now Oh, my mind is racing past me like the headlights on the highway I was born trying to find this ladder to climb And I'll sacrifice my comfort just so I can stand in line Won't you send me a card? Come summer I'll be lonely God knows I'll be lonely And everything there is about me you ever loved is probably gone Slow down when it rains as you're driving into town There's a curve right before the school that you'll be coming around When you see her won't you tell her that I really cared? She was nothing I was after for those reasons that she said So many time I had the wrong idea Held it inside, I never made it clear You had me feel like that was all I got, all I had to give And I don't even want to think about where it is I would be in my life It hurts worse just to be with you and you not know I care

If I drive through the night I can make it by noon I can picture pulling in to town, I don't know what you would do I pull the car down through Omaha, wondering if you'd ever change at all And you won't There's a place out of town that's cheap and warm I think about stoppin' in, but I don't know what for Ain't no driftin' off to sleep this way, you know we didn't even speak today oh, no Impatient love It feels so wrong to say, it takes too much No, you don't know the way Impatient love No, you don't know the way it leaves me blue So I take my things and I think a spell Every memory, every word you spoke, you've been somebody else I been adding up the years and now I still don't know who you are somehow oh, no Impatient love It feels so wrong to say, it takes too much No, you don't know the way Impatient love No, you don't know the way it leaves me blue Impatient love It feels so wrong to say it takes too much No, you don't know the way Impatient love No, you won't find a way to see me through

Turn 03:53
Don't turn away Anything you want I'll say And I'll give my world to you Just to be with you Is all I ask And you can take what you want to I remember you holdin' me, baby Those nights so long And how you'd always just tell me that you love me But I know you're wrong But I know you, and you know me So, you can take what you I forgive you for what you've done But you know I had to go And it was something that only I could see And there was nothing here worth saving No photos, thoughts or cards Yeah, you might as well have never been around I remember you holdin' me, baby Those nights so long And how you'd always just tell me that you love me But I know you're wrong But I know you, and you know me So, you can take what you

Here we are again, we're standing in the dawn Losing all our strength, and laughing at our luck Cause back there in the night, could have sworn I lost it all Lost you to the way you forget the things you say, and leave me blue I was standing out on the other side of the night Where I'd forget you, just as soon as I would fight it But when you come around I'm still standing here, my love Don't stay, forever now The only time we're true, the only time we're right Is when we're far apart, or somewhere out of sight And even still we're wrong and probably full of lies But when it's late enough I can love you like want every time Alone I've been, like secrets of an only friend Say to me you'll be alright, say to me you'll always try No matter where we go from now we'll still end up the same somehow You don't have to say to me, "You either come or go", you know Everybody knows, but no one wants to say Even when it's wrong, it's easier to stay

There was a time And don't you think I know it You had everything you wanted, and years fell away There's gotta be a way, I'm looking back To where you found me When I was young my heart was different Had so much more to give There's gotta be a way back out of here I just leave when things go wrong Since I've been away I've been so hard to touch I know, I know I've been searching, late at night I've been hoping that you just might There's nowhere left to run to You could still come home And there's just something, I should say It never mattered to me anyway I'm only waiting on you To be the one I'd seen the signs I've searched for answers there a thousand times But you keep the worst kind of people They take and won't give back I wonder if you're needing something all the time You'd just keep it to yourself I've always been right where I said I'd be You know, you should know There's gotta be a way back out of here I leave when things go wrong Since I've been away I've been so hard to touch I know, I know I've been searching, late at night I've been hoping that you just might There's nowhere left to run to You could still come home And there's just something, I should say It never mattered to me anyway I'm only waiting on you To be the one
