As I wake up alone, after years of playing musical homes, |
|
I am not really sure, 'cause it's all such a blur, |
|
But I think |
|
I'll be home in the fall |
|
And as my friends live and breathe, |
|
It seems they're doing just fine without me ' |
|
Cause I walk like a ghost without what meant the most to me |
|
Back before |
|
I had it all |
|
And it's minutes to hours and hours to days, |
|
It's cradles then taxes then caskets then graves |
|
But you've got your own world to burn - |
|
Don't wait for me, don't wait for me |
|
And I was feeling alright |
|
It was just me and |
|
Jack Daniel's tonight, |
|
And I appreciated his company the same |
|
It reminded me of |
|
Tennessee |
|
And it's minutes to hours and hours to days, |
|
It's cradles then taxes then caskets then graves |
|
On these city streets we can't stop for a while, |
|
We just live out our lives every mile after mile |
|
But you've got your own world to burn - |
|
Don't wait for me, don't wait for me |
|
Don't wait for me |
|
I'd fly to your arms if only |
|
I can move |
|
And I'd find a way through the turbulent sky ' |
|
Cause I know and you know there's nothing to prove |
|
This distance ain't only in miles |
|
And it's minutes to hours and hours to days |
|
It's cradles then taxes then caskets then graves |
|
On these city streets we can't stop for a while |
|
We just live out our life every mile after mile |
|
But you've got your own world to burn - |
|
Don't wait for me, don't wait for me |
|
Don't wait for me, don't wait for me |
|
So I guess this is the dream, |
|
But no one said it'd be such a machine. |
