lyrics

Fog smacks my window on this greyhound to Georgia
that's cutting through the night
I'd sell my shoes, my car, my guitars if it meant I
could keep you for a little while
I'd be quick to hide I'm wrong
Lord knows how much you love to be right

Most nights I miss Franklin and those
red bricks that shine under the city lights
but most of all, I miss that breeze
you know, the kind that carries me into relief

And I might lack a few things, but that don't mean I can't change
when it's time
oh when it's time

Now and then you come to me in
dreams I have already seen a hundred times
just like a book with a broken spine, we
all must learn to cope with life
when it's time

When it's time (x4)

I wonder what you think of me
am I drifting through your memories tonight?
I thought you saw the best in me
But you weren't even looking in my eyes
