lyrics

Little things escape me now and then
It's funny how you wound up your own best friend
Sometimes things will change then change back again
Like buzzards in the night, alley cats will fight

Yesterday you knew me pretty good
And you might still but now I just can’t tell
You’re bumming change beside the wishing well
You're running out of dimes
You’re gonna be just fine

And I could let you walk right past
Despite you stopping me dead in my tracks

Always in your dreams there's a turning point
Confessing your real purpose when you join
You walk the holy ground with your lead feet
Time can make see that it told you so

And little things escape me now and then
Just like wax that’s rolling down the side
Of a candle that’s been burning through a night
That can’t end soon enough
In the morning we’ll be tough

And I just couldn’t let it be
Left alone and you chose to go back
I can’t let you walk right past
You’re not done stopping me dead in my tracks
