Haunt Me

I think you drove into my dreams last night
In a beat up old car, you were riding with my friends
I thought oh no, it's you again
See I thought this story was over
I thought you moved away
Unscrewed your license plates
But when I dream, i connect the interstates

I don't know how you can say things that haunt me
I don't know why I can't put you on a shelf
You said one of us will die here and I don't give a damn
But it'll you, just as soon as I can stand

I almost didn't think of you today
But then I drove by your house
Foolishly cutting through town
And i wondered, is just your mother there now?
I still shovel her drive when the snow flies
But I do it late at night, i do it fast and quiet
And I wonder, if she's better now

I don't know how you can say things that haunt me
I don't know why I can't put you on a shelf
You said one of us will die here and I don't give a damn
But it'll you, just as soon as I can stand

The sky broke open today
And I had my mouth wide open
The river it washed you away
So I kept my eyes wide open

I don't know how you can say things that haunt me
I don't know why I can't put you on a shelf
You said one of us will die here and I don't give a damn
But it'll you, just as soon as I can stand
