Volunteers

Ten year volunteer, I want the job to disappear for good

Love won't compensate for all the things we never say

And all the things we should

Bottom line it might be time for you and I to say goodbye to what we did

And what we never tried

Sunlight, silhouettes, and dogwood trees

Swayin' all alone in the Carolina breeze

I asked for your hand and you asked for a plea

Tell me now girl is this the way it's gonna be

Open heart, open door, choose whatever metaphor you like

Hear me out before you go, I never meant this shit before: I lied

When all is said and all is done you always were the only one that understood

The way this song was sung

Sunlight, silhouettes and dogwood trees

Swayin' all alone in the Carolina breeze

I asked for your hand and you asked for a plea

Tell me now girl is this the way it's gonna be

Sunlight, silhouettes and dogwood trees

Swayin' all alone in the Carolina breeze

I asked for your hand and you asked for a plea

Tell me now girl do I stay or do I leave
