Just Talk

Just how many nights
Did we spend outside that diner
Trying to get it right
Sometimes when I was alone
The waitress would light up and ignore the phone
We'd talk about our dreams under these hometown stars
Swear at all our friends speeding by in their cars
She always had a look like she was trying to find
Something more than sympathy as she said goodnight

Every time I should've said that
I can't find a reason for us to go inside
It's a warm, warm night
And I feel so alive
So why don't we just get high
And wander round this night
We can find ourselves a quiet spot
To lay down and just talk

We fought to get by
With patches on our jeans and sleep in our eyes
When I couldn't crash
I'd get lost up in a picture of Maria on the dash
Radio's playing a song about growing up
About the lines around her eyes when it gets too much
But we were born in the flesh with our hearts on our minds

I can't find a reason for us to go inside
It's a warm, warm night
And I feel so alive
So why don't we just get high
And wander round this night
We can find ourselves a quiet spot
To lay down and just talk

Why don't we just go down
Wander 'round Milford town
In this foolish dream where I've been caught
We lay down and just talk
