| It's just the southern road that you leave by and open windows in your car. | |
| It's the breathing of the city that says leave me behind. | |
| Forget tomorrow side with the open road. | |
| Pulled apart for you. | |
| In the window unlocked and left open. | |
| For the rising sun taking you back home. | |
| If we never meet again it would be too soon. | |
| I'm glad I ran from you and now my life's a mess. | |
| And I'll have to admit that | |
| I have made a mistake. | |
| And every path that | |
| I take has lead me right back to here. | |
| And I never should have left. | |
| It's just the second chance that | |
| I dreamt of. | |
| When you took me into your lives. | |
| But there's a peak we have to climb over.so get a running start. | |
| Sitting here. | |
| Waiting a year. | |
| Hoping for something to change your mindand in this time | |
| I'll see that this is all we have. | |
| Before I leave | |
| I'm opening that door in my house. | |
| To face the ones | |
| I've left behind. | |
| Portrait of a man who stayed. | |
| His face is folded up and grayed. | |
| But there's something in his eyes that tells me this is the life for me. |
