How Many Times?

What pushed me to the shadows?
What threw you into rage?
What storms could we side step with
A little more grace?
You want something steady
That feels like it swallows you whole
But you know well as I do
You can't have love and control

How many times can we come back
To something that feels like home?
How many times can we break up
Before we bother to reset the bone?

When I left Chicago
Felt like I was losing my mind
How could something we built be so broken?
How could we leave this behind?
If I'm me when I'm with you,
Then who the hell am I alone?
I'm sure he's a great guy
Just not somebody I'm trying to know

How many times can we come back
To something that feels like home?
How many times can we break up
Before we bother to reset the bone?

When you find that lover
To live in that house on the lake
Who's quiet and kind
Hardly ever leaves your side
I hope you remember today

How many times can we come back
To something that feels like home?
How many times can we break up
Before we bother to reset the bone?

Before we bother to reset the bone
