The Road that Goes to Nowhere

Ever since you went away It's a fond and a familiar ache I take it with me every place because I'm afraid to let it fade Everywhere I walk I see your face It's a wonder how you haunt this place With everything you didn't say With everything you did And it goes, for so long... The reel I play in my mind The shutter frames in real time Of the snow falling Two hands over my eyes And surely I have grown tired Of the road that goes to nowhere... Getting lost with you It's easier to let it rest Than to never know just what you'll get To say too much and then regret the hand that I have shown. Then I'll get another flash of you, and you feel so real and true. When I think you really wanted to, my heart is so confused. And it goes, for so long... The reel I play in my mind The shutter frames in real time Of the snow falling Two hands over my eyes And surely I have grown tired Of the road that goes to nowhere... Getting lost with you Maybe I'll see you in the summertime Without thinking of your skin on mine Without every moment we spent playing in my mind You know it was hard on me, Waiting there for anything, Willing to love and so willing to be wrong. And it goes, for so long... The reel I play in my mind The shutter frames in real time Of the snow falling Two hands over my eyes And surely I have grown tired Of the road that goes to nowhere... Getting lost with you
