Oh every now and then I look back And can't believe oh just how fast The time flew And I wonder what you thought in that Moment when you saw me on tv holding A microphone singing to you I'm seeing state lines like you see stop signs But I havent changed that much I was never online but now it's all the time Searching your name with no luck There are crowds of people But no one's able To look at me the way you do And the songs are speaking My heart is bleeding Reaching out for you You come to mind Like a melody of a time Where I was happy in life But when the lights go down And no one's around That's when you come to me So gently I remember after my car crash I rented a hatchback Knew you wouldn't recognize the plate So I took myself on a one way Trip down a right turn memory lane Until I found 1498 Baby I cried a few hundred times Before my tears dried up I'd say that I'm fine but what a lie When I was the one who messed up There are crowds of people But no one's able To look at me the way you do And the songs are speaking My heart is bleeding Reaching out for you And you come to mind Like a melody of a time Where I was happy in life But when the lights go down And no one's around That's when you come to me So gently Im chasing telephone poles Through cities I go Hoping they reach ya And if I wait too long then I know how this song Is gonna end for me And it wont be gently Oh so gently
