That Tree

Late nights I'm thinking about where I went wrong That's why I decided to write this song Too many mistakes to count on one hand It's like I've forgotten where to stand Maybe it takes me too long to understand I don't know I never know I just can't see Where I should be Maybe by that tree Just you and me Morning comes, a new perspective A new part of me takes a breath in I no longer care about yesterday A new day has come and it keeps me guessing Hope is the word and it is a blessing I don't know I never know I just can't see Where I should be Maybe by that tree Just you and me Year by year Up and down My mind just wants to escape from this town You can't cut the head from the heart If you try and do it it'll fall apart Just take a breath (take a breath) Of course you know what to do (what to do) So see it through Time for a walk, another mistake It's three am how did it get this late But going to the river relaxes me It takes my mind to where it should be I start to think about when I'll be free I don't know I never know I just can't see Where I should be Maybe by that tree Just you and me Real friends, they're hard to find I don't know maybe it's a sign I guess most people like to pretend But if I give up then that's the end Maybe one day you'll make amends Now I know I've always known I can see Where I'm supposed to be Maybe by that tree Just you and me
