Save the right words until Autumn So you can say them from miles away It's a shame we can't ever be open But I'm ready still I can feel the thrill I never wanted to make sense I always thought I'd be somewhere on the road Used my songs like a defense They never led me anywhere but home I was a hopeless romantic I had my eye on the prize so many times Used my heart like a defense It always led me everywhere but home But I'll still spill my guts for you Where we are now is somewhere new I was too young to focus (I never stayed) Too savor every moment I lost all forward motion (in a single place) Now I'm standing still while you're leaving I wanted your devotion (I never stayed) Some kind of secret potion Hellbent on backward motion In a single place) Now I'm standing still while you're leaving
