Thirteen Blocks (Can't Call It Love)

Stumbled off the porch steps

I sat down in the car

Only thirteen blocks across this town

To get to where you are

And that don't offer me much time

To make up my mind

So I best be driving slow

On my way to letting go

These headlights, they just want to fade

Off into the night

But if they're half as stubborn as me

They’ll just keep on shining bright

I ain't ever been one to settle like

The dust does on the dash

And since the feeling ain't strong, I'll just move on

And leave this in my past

Once you're gone, I know your memory

Will somehow get the best of me

So why question everything I do?

Unsure of turning you away

Wondering 'bout how I'll act today

If you have found somebody new

So I've been holding on way too long

But not another minute

I might miss you bad, but

Can't call it love if you ain't in it

Red light turns to green

Then back to red again

I wish there were some other travelers out here

To slow my traveling

But even though the wheel rolled on

Inside I still don't know

Oh, and it troubles me so

Once you're gone, I know your memory

Will somehow get the best of me

So why question everything I do?

Unsure of turning you away

Wondering 'bout how I'll feel today

I see you found somebody new

And I've been holding on way too long

But not another minute

I might miss you bad, but

Can't call it love if you ain't in it

Once you're gone, I know your memory

Will somehow get the best of me

So why question everything I do?

Unsure of turning you away

Wondering 'bout how I'll feel today

I see you found somebody new

Sure, I've been holding on way too long

But not another minute

I might miss you bad, but

Can't call it love if you ain't in it

Your car comes to a rest in the drive

You open up the door and I see you, you smile
