I woke up before the sun this morning
And tried to figure out exactly how to fix my hair
As I twisted each strand together
I remembered exactly how you looked and all your words
I stood in my driveway all morning
Trying to decide which way I should be running
I try to hear your voice to tell me what to do
And when I only hear the wind
I try to think of some truth
I wish I could be there for you
I wish that I could know
Exactly what to do
I wish we could have had more time
But all at once I'm tired
I'm wearing out my lungs
I packed all my things up so carefully
Everything in its own place
I see a car just like yours drive toward me
Everything at once, I stand up tall, and clear my throat
I wish I could be there for you
I wish that I could know
Exactly what to do
I wish we could have had more time
But all at once I'm tired
I'm wearing out my lungs
Maybe if I'm okay
Everyone will be okay
Maybe if I'm never late
No one will be angry
Maybe if I keep you close
I'll know just what to say
Maybe when i find you
I won't run away
Maybe I will dream about you
Then I'll know your face
Or maybe it's all up to me
I choose where to stay
Maybe I will dream about you
Then I'll know your face
Or maybe it's all up to me
I choose where to stay
I wish I could be there for you
I wish that I could know
Exactly what to do
I wish we could have had more time
But all at once I'm tired
I'm wearing out my lungs
I wish that I could know
But I don't know
I wish that I could know
But I don't know
And I wish I could be sure
You're coming home
