Lyrics

Did you hear the one about the girl
Who'd never seen a cactus tree?
In her mind she traveled around the world
But never saw a plane until seventeen
White knuckling the armrest
Only bound for Idaho
Hoping for the best
But you don't know what you don't know
That it only takes a window seat
To see the world was underwater too
And I only had to lose my way
To be found by you
To be found by you
He went out the window on a New Year's Day
And shattered his body on a downtown street
Yeah, we're all just a broken heart away
From making a promise that we're forced to keep
Doing 90 in a 45 on Ambien and Jack
The spinning wheel makes a ticking sound
And sometimes it lands on black
Some kids make it home at night
And some kids never do
I almost had to lose my mind
To be found by you
To be found by you
There's a picture of you on your grandma's wall
You and your hair are straight and light
It's just an awkward moment that's locked in time
But I can see Elijah in your eyes
What I wouldn't give to hold you in those days and still
What if we had broke up over Jagged Little Pill?
We don't curse the broken miles of age
That it takes to see this through
Yeah, I probably had to lose those years
To be found by you
I know I had to lose my way
To be found by you
In a moment everything could change
Anything can change
Let it go
Keep it light
Let it snow
Let the wind blow all night
It's only life after all
It's a blink of an eye
It's a long goodbye
It's a long goodbye
It's a long
Goodbye
