It’s hard to stay,
When everything inside screams to run
As far as, as quick as, as soon as
Possible.

But that look in your eyes
Brings me back from the miles
Down the road I can see;
Brings me back from the places
I don’t want to be.

I never wanted a future,
But you make me believe
Maybe there’s something inside
Other than this feeling-
Like I’ve always got to hide.

At the first sign of trouble,
I’ve always been the first to let go;
The last to look back;
The furthest away from dependable,
When it really matters the most.

That look in your eyes
Brings me back from the miles
Down the road I can see;
Brings me back from the places
I don’t want to be.

I’ll always come home to see you smile.
