There was a time and an age when you lived in my mind

Oh, like a vice and I hate that we couldn't survive

All the fights and the pain and the darkest of days couldn't drive me away

Yeah, I'm a holding out hope, and I'm keeping the faith

You can call any day

Midnight or morning, it's fine

I'm here in spite of the madness

I know you're glad that we're done

But if you'd send me your address

I'll know that you're safe with someone

Our oasis is dried up

Will you chase after my love?

Over night, walk back in my life

And oh, I'm hoping you'll stay there

Cause who would I be to ask you to leave?

Am I just wasting care?

Is living your dream to live without me?

Don't ever be some kind of fool that's living for nothing

You can come back if the old path just makes you feel numb

Count all the ways that you know me, I'll count all your scars

Don't run away when you're lonely, you'll never get far

So you run for the hills and you're seeking out thrills and you won't be fulfilled

Cause I read all your thoughts and untie all your knots till you're back in my arms

Midnight or morning, I'll try to give you something familiar

Know that I'd kill for your love

So why do I give you an inch when you'll take back a mile and run?

Our oasis is dried up, no more places to hide us

Over night, you're back in my life

And oh, I'm hoping you'll stay there

Cause who would I be to ask you to leave?

Am I just wasting care?

Is living your dream to live without me?

Don't ever be some kind of fool that's living for nothing

Come back if the old path just makes you feel numb

Gotta watch you bleed

Honor what you need

And to hell with me, and my fears and my wants

We had paradise right here, but it's gone

There was a time and an age when you lived in my mind
