If I had the chance, babe
To go back in time, maybe I'd try a time or two
This life took you in, babe
The same one that reminds me I could never love you like you do
The road is so hard, dear
I bet there's some hometown bar that we could be
But I just had a dream, dear
It's you in the late fall, all warm, swarmed with the midday light

We're laying on the roof of my car
Feeling young, feeling numb, feeling starved
Of all the things that a moment can be
This one's best kept a memory
The purest parts of my heart are you and me

I love when your grin grows
The corners of your lips lifting lift me when I'm low
I read in the good book
The best things in life are free and need to be let go
So take one last good look
Let's share one last cigarette
I'll be gone by the time you're ashing it
Stop asking things you know the answer to
There ain't no world in which I am good for you

And we're laying on the roof of my car
Feeling young, feeling numb, feeling starved
Of all the things that a moment can be
This one's best kept a memory
How the kindest parts of my mind are you and me
