I broke the speed limit to get to you
And I took a road where there was no road
Lost my keys and common sense
Jumped the gun to jump the fence
Just to find you gone

I turned the lights off in the kitchen
I took the needle out the groove
Dropped the roses in the sink
Woke up cold and on the brink
Just to find you gone

Nobody told us
This weight on our shoulders
Would keep us apart
From the morning through the dark
If love is a door
That we walk through together
Then how come we can't find the key?

I broke the speed limit to get to you
I cut a valley through the rain
Held a vigil at the bar
Little candle in a jar
Just to find you gone

Nobody told us
This weight on our shoulders
Would keep us apart
From the morning through the dark
If love is a door
That we walk through together
Then how come we can't find the key?

Nobody told us
This weight on our shoulders
Would keep us apart
From the morning through the dark
If love is a door
That we walk through together
Then how come we can't find the key?

I broke the speed limit to get to you
I took a road where there was no road
We don't ever get it right
Couple sailboats in the night
Drifting all alone

All the places that we went
I went back to them again
Just find you gone
