|
sometime other than now |
|
|
|
Maybe
your mama didn't treat you right, |
|
Maybe
her intentions weren't even very good |
|
Maybe
my daddy lay awake at night |
|
Imagining
himself in some other neighborhood |
|
|
|
Left
to our own devices |
|
Like
maybe they were too |
|
Out
on the open road |
|
And
wonderin' what to do |
|
|
|
CHORUS: |
|
You
ask how we got here baby don't ask how |
|
That
was sometime other than now |
|
|
|
It
takes what it takes, that's what they told us girl |
|
We've
done a lot of dumb things, we'll probably do some more |
|
On
two different paths, runnin' 'round in different worlds |
|
We
finally found each other, who we were lookin' for |
|
Now
I see my own reflection |
|
When
I give my love to you |
|
And
it's shot back like an arrow |
|
So
straight and true |
|
|
|
REPEAT
CHORUS |
|
|
|
BRIDGE: |
|
I'm
not leavin' baby |
|
The
future's comin' right here and now |
|
And
maybe tomorrow we can't take it |
|
I'm
not grievin' baby anymore |
|
The
past is gone |
|
And
we can't fake it, so baby let's make it |
|
With
this love of ours somehow |
|
|
|
A
little bit of fear, you know it goes a long way |
|
It's
followed us around since we were little kids |
|
With
just a little faith, well maybe baby someday |
|
We
will find the strength, the strength to forgive |
|
|
|
It
don't come all of a sudden |
|
But
when it comes at last |
|
You
could blink your eyes and miss it |
|
It
happens so fast |
|
|
|
REPEAT CHORUS |
