Way Back

lyrics

I always thought there was something to be said for loyalty
And I never thought I'd hear myself say the words and set you free
My heart is just a muscle you can't break it
And I've laid it on the line cuz I can take it
But still I count the beats

I only notice nature when I'm in my car
The road never seems too lonely till I've gone too far
But I always thought that you would be beside
And I never stopped to think about what I'd need
I always turned around

I gotta find a way back on my own
I won't expect anyone else to guide me home
In the night I reach for you
With the morning comes the truth
That you, you're already gone

I only wanted something I could call my own
Yes it's taken me some time but now I finally know
I never thought that you would get impatient
The best moments of our lives are in the waiting
And so I say to you

I gotta find a way back on my own
I won't expect anyone else to guide me home
And if I reach for you
Well I already know the truth
And I'm gonna be alright
I'm gonna be alright
