Why
Why do I
Keep driving across these
County lines
Knowing good and well
I can't change her mind
How do I
Sort through these emotions
Deep down inside
I feel a commotion
Rise up high
As I sit on this porch swing singin' prayers to the sky
Don't wanna be the man she said she forgot
But I don't know why
Never once have I stared down the barrel of a gun
But my heart felt the pain as these strings came undone
And I don't know why
Wishing for a dream to come true
But I keep waking up
To a shadow of you
Around me everywhere I go
Hoping for a lifetime with you
Is like an open door
To a terrible view
It's time
For me to move on
So I sit on this porch swing singin' prayers to the sky
Don't wanna be the man she said she forgot
But I don't know why
Never once have I stared down the barrel of a gun
But my heart felt the pain as these strings came undone
But I don't know why
Now that I have opened my heart
And changed my desire
I'm pressing restart
Cause I know
Love just comes and goes
As I sit on this porch swing singin' prayers to the sky
I don't wanna be the man she said she forgot
But I don't know why
Never once have I stared down the barrel of a gun
But my heart felt the pain as these strings came undone
And I just don't know why
Keep driving across these
County lines
Knowing good and well
I can't change her mind
How do I
Sort through these emotions
Deep down inside
I feel a commotion
Rise up high
As I sit on this porch swing singin' prayers to the sky
Don't wanna be the man she said she forgot
But I don't know why
Never once have I stared down the barrel of a gun
But my heart felt the pain as these strings came undone
And I don't know why
Wishing for a dream to come true
But I keep waking up
To a shadow of you
Around me everywhere I go
Hoping for a lifetime with you
Is like an open door
To a terrible view
It's time
For me to move on
So I sit on this porch swing singin' prayers to the sky
Don't wanna be the man she said she forgot
But I don't know why
Never once have I stared down the barrel of a gun
But my heart felt the pain as these strings came undone
But I don't know why
Now that I have opened my heart
And changed my desire
I'm pressing restart
Cause I know
Love just comes and goes
As I sit on this porch swing singin' prayers to the sky
I don't wanna be the man she said she forgot
But I don't know why
Never once have I stared down the barrel of a gun
But my heart felt the pain as these strings came undone
And I just don't know why
