Driving to New York Back when we were Talking like forever I'm sorry that I left her I miss when she'd sing Songbird, Joni I wish that I was better She'd love me if I let her I didn't know if I loved you Or if I loved you too much Like something inside of me was running from your touch And I know when you're broken because you just won't talk Like something inside of you had turned the lights off Passing by the city light when I heard you say How the snow would turn to color Let's come back in the summer But every time I made you cry I thought about the day When I met you through the window Now we're walking on a tightrope I didn't know if I loved you Or if I loved you too much Like something inside of me was running from your touch And I know when you're broken because you just won't talk Like something inside of you had turned the lights off After your parents left Remember what happened next Told you I had to go I left you all alone Hurt you a thousand times Looking for warning signs I wish I could steal my words And save you from every hurt What was I running from She was the only one Living inside my head Thinking of what she said Just bring your love to me And I'll carry it carefully I know you've been wondering But God only knows I can I didn't know if I loved you Or if I loved you too much Like something inside of me was running from your touch And I know when you're broken because you just won't talk Like something inside of you had turned the lights off
