Speak

I drove hours just to meet you there

The cars drove past, I could smell your hair

And we listened to our songs there

As you looked out the window, crying

You had written that sloppy note

About how in another life

We might know what life was like between us

If those things had just been a little different

And oh, I dared you

I said I'd never see you again after tonight

Oh no, now I'm not leaving here 'til you know that I

I still remember all those reasons why

I remember

I'll remember when you shut your eyes

I still remember all those reasons why

I remember

I'll remember when you shut your eyes and speak

I tried to hide against the wall

I wish you didn't know me

You took the back of my hand

And you put it to your chest

To show me how it's gonna beat, beat for me now

I felt so stupid, couldn't figure it out

How you didn't see those things in the mirror

I hope you don't with each step nearer to me

Oh, why can't I just reach that distance to you now

I try and try, I wish that I could prove how

I still remember all those reasons why

I remember

I'll remember when you shut your eyes

I still remember all those reasons why

I remember

I'll remember when you shut your eyes and speak

Speak, speak to me

Speak, speak, speak to me

I still remember all the late nights

Tying up the phone lines

Trying just to speak to you there

We felt so far away from each other

No matter what we said we couldn't reach one another
