I Think You Got Ahead Of Me

I think you got ahead of me you got ahead of me

walking back towards the sea and moving steadily

as far as the eye can see all is empty

no sign of anything resembling the living

so baby come home don't you leave me all alone

the knots you make ties you break life you take all adds up to nothing

nothing but

when you don't play by the rules

the days turn black and blue

i guess you got some things to do

i'll remember you

these are not the eyes of me

it's just a side of me

rising like the tide of sea

nothing more surprises me

slip away so quietly

I am ready walking down the side of me

please come cry with me

i think you got the best of me because the rest of me

has lost all feeling with no signs of healing

how can i just let it be when everything

isn't how it ought to be it's my autobiography

so when the wind blows will you hit that lonely road

and never look back at what might have come to pass so it became nothing

nothing cuz

when you don't play by the rules

the days turn black and blue

i guess you got some things to do

i'll remember you

I fell down from the top of the world

it's my farewell party

i'll sail off into the setting sun (hey now)

I fell down from the top of the world

and these words of parting

were written with love just for you

please don't think less of me

because the better me

that stands right next to me

waits for me to set it free

I am what i used to be

to confused to see

hasn't gotten used to me

Root, trunk, branch, leaf

that's the way it's supposed to go

I'm one my shoulder knows

asking them to hold the boat

this the fit we chose to throw

cold nights and lonely roads

I want you to know that you're the only one that makes this life so beautiful

say it like you mean it like you believe it

cuz i best believe in going with the season

i appreciate you telling me cuz i was wondering

why my ears are ringing from each and every evening

so off i go back to things i used to know

and when I look back the good and the bad times that we had all add up to something

something cuz

when you don't play by the rules

the days turn black and blue

i guess you got some things to do

i'll remember you

when you don't play by the rules

the days turn black and blue

i guess you got some things to do

i'll remember you
