Let me neglect your voice
Let you out of my head
If I told you I tried
Well I didn't try enough
That's gonna change
Believe me now
I'll show you how
You can have me
I'll tell you everything
And every thought
Run across my barren wasteland
Of a mind
And if you're still there
By the end of my story
You can have
All the stolen glory
Nervously sliding my hand
To the soft spot tissue
That is your hand
And as our fingers interlock
I'm not at all shocked
But my heart is racing
My head is calm
My hand is shaky
And you're just there
Expresionless
Your sweater
and brown hair
are all I have
To make it through the day
Your embrace
and your laugh
Belong to you
Could I borrow them for class?
I'll give them back at lunch
Can I borrow you?
Be mine for a while
We can go a mile
or two
In my stupid car
with my bad music
And my shaky hands
I'll go slow
Not to worry you
I'll take the backroads
Cause where we're going
There isn't a main road
to get to where we're going
We're going away
Leaving this town
This state
We're going to travel
The whole wide world
And as long as you're in bed
By sundown
Then I'll be happy
As long as you're happy
