lyrics

Well it would be OK
If you took the long way
But boy, where are you driving to?

Perfect is not a place
It’s just a smile on your face
And it is everything we do.

But if you could use my mind
To draw the best I hope to find
Would you recognize my point of view?

CHORUS
You come on a little strong
And you never quite belong
But who could care for something more

Than you, rushing off somewhere
You might find we’re already there, and
Tell me, have you been in love before?

One final look around
They turned the chairs upside down
As you come walking through the door

The weight of compromise
So many dreams to realize
But darling we’ve been here before

Slow down if you can
Rest your sweet face in my hands
Believe me that there’s nothing else to do

CHORUS

Here’s where we end once we circle again
Let’s drive real slow breathing in as we go

Maybe I don’t want to see more than two steps ahead of me
You might get tired, you might let go
I’ll stay here where I don’t know
Beneath the urgency of plans there is the heaven of your hands
If they’re waving me away I’ll close my eyes so I can stay

Who’s to say say where we should be? I like you here in front of me
Maybe what you really mind though I don’t really know sometimes

You accidentally brush my leg and I go falling hard again
All you have to do is breathe your perfect love inside of me

CHORUS
