lyrics

You’ve been working too hard...
You’ve been coming home late
Just in time to clear your dinner plate
And retire to your cave.

I reminisced the other day about the nights we’d wait
Out by the tracks to watch the freight trains pass
After swimming in the lake.

Have I waited too long to try and patch this up?
Now is it too late?

I’ve been trying to get through to you like I used to.
When you smiled at me through the Marlboro smoke as ya changed my mind.
Cause I wanted you more than anything that I ever knew.
Back then you wanted it too.
Back then you wanted it too.

Your sister called me on the phone. She said she’s worried about you.
I said, “well I don’t know what you want me to do. I’m in the same boat too.
Baby your wings got clipped somewhere along the line.
I used watch you soaking in the sunlight...
I’d see the solace in your eyes.

Now have we waited too long to put this house on stilts?
Or have we given up and let the waters rise?

I’ve been trying to get through to you like I used to.
When you smiled at me through the Marlboro smoke as ya changed my mind.
Cause I wanted you more than anything that I ever knew.
Back then you wanted it too.
Back then you wanted it too.

And I know you’re still inside there somewhere, I just wish I could bring it on out.
And I don’t know when I stopped being enough for you...can’t put my finger on the source of the doubt that consumes you now.
All those evil thoughts have crept on in and they’ve wiped you out.

I came home the other night... you were sitting on the floor.
You said “I’m so sad but I don’t know what for.”

I sat down by your side as you started to weep.
You said “we’re good on paper but we fail in the streets...
And I miss how we used to be.”


Cause I’ve been trying to get through to you like I used to.
When you smiled at me through the Marlboro smoke as ya changed my mind.
Cause I wanted you more than anything that I ever knew.
Back then you wanted it too.
Back then you wanted me too.
Back then you wanted it too.
