|
I'll have to be |
|
As brave as you |
|
With no star to guide us |
|
Blazing above; |
|
And no moonshiner's river |
|
To carry us through |
|
And no way to speak |
|
When there aren't words enough |
|
Fair enough, |
|
You asked me for nothing |
|
Fair enough |
|
All you told me was true, |
|
I called down the flood |
|
And I'm falling forever |
|
But I was this close to you, |
|
This close to you |
|
It rained for a week |
|
And I kept my head down |
|
Trying to think what |
|
You reminded me of: |
|
A fire that hat ravaged |
|
An Ohio town, |
|
And spooked me at noon |
|
With my headlights still on |
|
Fair enough, |
|
You asked me for nothing |
|
Fair enough |
|
All you told me was true, |
|
I called down the flood |
|
And I'm falling forever |
|
But I was this close to you, |
|
This close to you |
|
Well sometime at night |
|
I pretended to be sleeping |
|
Just to hear what it is |
|
That you say |
|
When you talk to yourself |
|
And the darkness is keeping |
|
The hateful morning |
|
A goodnight away |
|
If I was much younger |
|
I might just forget it |
|
If love was the habit of |
|
Some borrowed room; |
|
But it's all that I have |
|
And I'm doomed to regret it |
|
If I can't forgive |
|
Myself or you soon. |
|
Fair enough, |
|
You asked me for nothing |
|
Fair enough |
|
All you told me was true, |
|
I called down the flood |
|
And I'm falling forever |
|
But I was this close to you, |
|
This close to you |
