Tell Me

Count the white lines on the highway Wishing you were by my side And I know we said forever Then we never even made it through the night Oh I tried to love you And show you things that you have never seen before But it's hard for me to stay with you When you keep asking if I'm headed for the door Why can't we just count the stars Instead of counting all our nights apart Why don't you just love me like you did Tell me while I'm too high to cry and too drunk to forget Promises come easy When she's crying in the car Saying swear you'll never leave me The meaning fades away like shadows in the dark Why can't we just count the stars Instead of counting all our nights apart Why don't you just love me like you did Tell me while I'm too high to cry and too drunk to forget I'm pretty good at faking sober Least I can fool her on the phone The train down the road shakes the walls of this trailer And reminds me that I'm still alone Why can't we just count the stars Instead of counting all our nights apart Why don't you just love me like you did Tell me while I'm too high to cry and too drunk to forget Why can't we just count the stars Instead of counting all our nights apart Why don't you just love me like you did Tell me while I'm too high to cry and too drunk to forget
