you know this day is for two people.
you know this life is meant to be.
and i can't forsee the future
but i know it's you and me.
yeah i know it's you and me.
oh baby can't you see.
days into weeks, weeks into months,
months into pages I can't fill up fast enough.
and it seems like the back of my pencil
is gone.
i'm trying to stand still, i'm trying to hold on
to things in my mind that i wished i had said.
but when time moves on ahead
i can't.
i'm flipping it once, i'm flipping it twice,
i'm flipping it three times you say that's alright.
you write from the heart, i write from the head
you got me fixed up now i want you so bad.
you're taking the pen, you're making some changes
to the book i've been hiding so long.
as long as you're there for me,
you care for me,
now i'm free.
hold on to the wheel, take a deep breath
live in the moment you don't know what's next.
how can i know how this ends today?
i'm trying to stand still, i'm trying to hold on
to things in my mind that i know hold me back.
but i look across the room and you smile.
