Midwest Kings - Song To Me
As you sit there with your coffee looking up
You told me your life story and how there'd never be enough
Glue to put you back together
Or the ropes to tie it in
In so softly, show the scars
Of how you can begin
To wait all these nights alone
To wait, wishing you'd come home
Take a breath, you'll need it where you're going
Make it up as you go along

When she figures it out
She'll be astounded to find
That she never even had a chance
She may never get around
What it's all about
I just hope that the crash is not too loud
When she figures it out

And they told you that it's cold
This far away from home
But you sold all you know
For a bus ride with no phone
Now you lay on your back
Wondering what went wrong
All the letters that you sent me
They all went into this song
To me, all your lights, they're enough
To me, humming it all soft
Take a breath, you'll need it where you're going
Make it up as you go along

When she figures it out
She'll be astounded to find
That she never even had a chance
She may never get around
What it's all about
I just hope that the crash is not too loud
When she figures it out
When she figures it out

You'll find out someday, I know
Just don't think I'll be here to
Make sure you make up your mind
Know you've got to stop

When she figures it out
She'll be astounded to find
That she never even had a chance
She may never get around
What it's all about
I just hope that the crash is not too loud
[But I hope I'm not around]
When she figures it out
You'll find out someday, I know [I hope I'm not around]
Just don't think I'll be here to [When she figures it out]
Make sure you make up your mind
You've got to stop

Fixed

as you sit there with your coffee looking up
you told me your life story and how there’d never be enough
glue to put you back together
or the ropes to tie it in
and so softly you show the stars
of how you can begin
to wait all these nights alone
to wait, wishing you’d come home

take a breath, you’ll need it where you’re going
make it up as you go along

when she figures it out
she’ll be astounded to find
that she never even had a chance
she may never get around
what it’s all about
i just hope that the crash is not too loud
when she figures it out

and they told you that it’s cold
this far away from home
but you sold all you know
for a bus ride with no phone
now you lay on your back
wondering what went wrong
all the letters that you sent me
they all went into this song
to me, all your lights turned off
to me, humming it all soft

take a breath, you’ll need it where you’re going
make it up as you go along

when she figures it out
she’ll be astounded to find
that she never even had a chance
she may never get around
what it’s all about
i just hope that the crash is not too loud
when she figures it out
when she figures it out

you’ll find out someday, i know
just don’t think i’ll be here to
make sure you make up your mind
know you’ve got to stop

when she figures it out
she’ll be astounded to find
that she never even had a chance
she may never get around
what it’s all about

i just hope that the crash is not too loud
(but i hope i’m not around)
when she figures it out
you’ll find out someday, i know
(i hope i’m not around)
just don’t think I’ll be here to
(when she figures it out)
make sure you make up your mind
you’ve got to stop
