A Lifetime In A Week

Well the streets can't get much darker
As I step into my car, driving east
I'm trying to calm myself until I know where you are
Cause my mind makes up excuses
Or you say that's what I do
Because it's taken me too long to know
It's time I need with you

And this is the last time
I look before I leap
I confess, I'm a mess when you leave
(Why'd you leave?)

And these days pass
But I still haven't slept at all
And I'm terrified to call
You can't forget me
We promised not to change
But then we grew up, but not too fast.
We lived a lifetime
In a week before you left

But I'm still stuck here
And all I have left
Are those nights in your bed
With my hand slipping further up your dress
Then you stopped me
But it's cute because you do it so smooth

And I seem to recall several nights spent
In the back of your car
You said, I want you to know
My body's burning for yours'
Or those days spent drinking
With nothing to do
Except get lost in the moment
As I slowly undress you

And I'll pretend that you're here
And you're not gone
It's not the end if you were here
And you're not gone
