For The Ride Home

I like the faces you make at me
When we're lying in bed
They are always so beautiful
I like when you tuck your body close to me
When we're sleeping, it's alright

Dream your fears away
And I'll be here all day
Dry your eyes
I'm here to spend this moment in your arms again

The forecast calls for rain to take away the day
I guess we'll just have to stay inside your room
And I'll bring your breakfast warm to wake you from your dreams
As you lift your head up right

Dream your fears away
And I'll be here all day
Dry your eyes
I'm here to spend this moment in your arms again

And so another day between us comes angled
So soon, but it's magical
You bring the lock,
I'll bring the key to set you free
As I lay your body down

This moment, now
This moment, now, now
This moment, in your arms
This moment in your arms
This moment in your arms again

Tell me I didn't miss anything
Travelin' around in your head
You know my legs are tired
Of runnin' the maze you've planned

Chorus
So, just lie to me baby
Tell me maybe
All the while
You never made me smile

So, just lie to me baby
My mind is hazy
Now you're gone
I'm havin' so much fun
Yeah, yeah, yeah....

You tell me that you're bothered
with the lies that you've been fed
'Cause oh lord one more broken promise
To the search of a new band
But the feeling seems so mutual
Its the fabric of our lives
Timing so unusual
it makes us wanna fight
Take your games elsewhere honey
I'm not feeling right
maybe you'd be better off if you just try
just try, just try...

Chorus

Standin 'round in a crowded room
your face is here bring me back to you
leaving town slips into my head again
my friends say stay but I wanna go
there's people here that I used to know
to the situation that you put me in
and I can tell myself that I will be gone
you can rest assure that I will be home

cuz I belong to the best of you
and you belong to the things I do
when a song is how I'll remember you
cuz I can tell you what its like to be gone
you're an old time memory
you're an old time memory

laying back with the headphones on
a pen in hand takes me to the dawn
paper worn to the thoughts of you again
taking light of the time of night
a ballpoint fast full of work in mind
the chorus playing in my head again
cuz I can tell myself that I will be gone
but you can rest assure that I will be home

cuz I belong to the best of you
and you belong to the things I do
when a song is how I'll remember you
cuz I can tell you what its like to be gone
you're an old time memory
you're an old time memory

well the feelings that remain
and the promises in vain
and the memories are stained
for you, for you

cuz I can tell myself that I will be gone
and you can rest assured that I will be home

cuz I belong to the best of you
and you belong to the things I do
when a song is how I'll remember you
cuz I can tell you what its like to be gone
cuz I can tell you what its like to be gone
you're an old time memory

You've been bad
You know you've been good
Did you lose your mind, like I knew you would

Did you sing your song
Did you sing it so loud
Did you sing it so everyone can hear in the crowd

Did you lose yourself
Did you lose your health
Did you put my memories on the shelf

Did you lose your place
Did you lose your grace
Just so everyone could see your singing face

Its like everybody loves you
and everybody wants you lately
Its like everybody needs you
and everybody sees you today

You've been sad
Your misunderstood
Did you find your kind,
Like i knew you would

Did you feel your song
Did you feel it so real
Did you feel it so everyone could see your grand appeal

Did you lose yourself
Did you lose your health
Did you put my memories on the shelf

Did you lose your place
Did you lose your grace
Just so everyone could see your singing face

Its like everybody loves you
and everybody wants you lately
Its like everybody needs you
and everybody sees you today
Today

If they would let me show
For the time we love
Time will say,
Keep the fun alive
and lead the way to our today

Did you lose yourself
Did you lose your health
Did you put my memories on the shelf

Did you lose your place
Did you lose your grace
Just so everyone could see your singing face

Its like everybody loves you
and everybody wants you lately
Its like everybody needs you
and everybody sees you today

Its like everybody loves you
and everybody wants you lately
Its like everybody needs you
and everybody sees you today
Today

Hey Perfect ten
Did you stop to check him out
Hey perfect ten did you leave him any doubt
You know you're on your way
You can feel it in your bones
You know there'll be a day
This will make you feel alone
*CHORUS*
So don't forget the days we wrestled on the phone
Don't forget the way you liked to sing along
Don't forget the way you make me feel at home
At home when I'm alone
Hey perfect ten
Did you find your lovely place
Hey perfect ten
Did they make your lovely face
Reflection hurts your soul
You can feel it in your bones
You know there'll be a day
This will make you feel alone
*CHORUS*
Who hides the key when you're with me
Who spends the days when you're not free
*CHORUS*
When I'm feeling gone
When I need you most
You make me feel at home
