Say the Word

I pull into the station with the cheap gasoline
Lights on the dash flashing could be a leak or destiny
A poem in my pocket with your name written on it
About a hundred times and every promise I could rhyme to it
I look up and see the stars that burned out yesterday
I wonder which one of them saw our first kiss
Envious of all the ways you shine in your blinding bliss
Ultraviolet love and pure cosmic radiance

I will drop everything, my fear my pride my life
I will make time and drive in the middle of the night
Watch the miles and everything else fall behind
Say the word and I'll find you
Say it and I'll be fine

What are you willing to lose, we need to draw the line
I am running on fumes and I am running out of time
I came all this way to hear you say you're mine
Just say the word and I'll find you
I need to be fine

I took a wrong turn looking for the easy way out
Lights on the dash flashing don't know what that's all about
The fog is rolling in it dances on the beams
I'm pushing eighty only seeing fifty feet in front of me
My demons pass me by I wave and say hello
They all ask me why I tell them I don't fucking know
It's what I have to do they all laugh at the start
Then I show them the poem and it broke their fucking hearts

I will drop everything, my fear my pride my life
I will make time and drive in the middle of the night
Watch the miles and everything else fall behind
Say the word and I'll find you
Say it and I'll be fine

You are all I have to lose, I need to draw the line
I am running on fumes and I am running out of time
I came all this way to hear you say you're mine
Just say the word and I'll find you
I need to be fine

Pedal stuck to the floor there are cracks in the window
The engine stutters with each misfiring spark
The tires are screaming I can smell burning rubber
The dash lights are flashing I'm choking on the smoke
I cannot see there is water in my eyes
I cannot breathe there is poison in my lungs
I cannot feel there is fire on my skin
Don't wait it's not too late I can still make the drive

Say it I'll find you
Say it in time
Say it I'll find you
I am not fine

Say it
