if I only had a car
wouldn't be here in this bar
trying to get to you
time takes toll, the hours I'd roll
is it a blessing or is it a curse
seems this love makes matters worse
I'm stuck in this cafe
lost along the way
moving to keep strong
when I'm feeling myself burn
it don't matter let it hurt
it tells me I'm alive
when you saw me in California
I was lost in a dusty haze
now that I know you
you feel so far away
if I only had a car
wouldn't be here in this bar
trying to get to you
as I'm waving you goodbye
following the line
trying to get to you
still the echos fill the void
your eyes rolled in your head
as you slowly disappeared
still hard to rearrange
the distance made it strange
I'm still trying to get to you
if I only had a car
wouldn't be here in this bar
trying to get to you
