Chasing Cars

We'll do it all
Everything
On our own

We don't need
Anything
Or anyone

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel

Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads

I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see

I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

There's a lot that I can say right now, about life and observations and self-reflections, but now is not the time. I have to brave the brisk chilly air and take care of business (and pray it doesn't encourage a cold!).

how loud is your neighborhood right now? :-)

i remember wanting to punch that song in the face when i was taking fine metals class, since on the radio station played in the studio it came on about every third song.

but we're cool now.

stay warm!!! drink plenty of tea & soup. and when you're not too busy, let me know how you're doing. :-)
