Sidetracked

Do you know how long I've waited? Do you know the meaning of these feelings on your face Do you know the water will not hide what lives within Two tombstones frame a wilted bouquet That's quietly replaced on a fresh dug grave You mourn and still hide the tears Heavy heart strings ring in my ear Your warm skin Flushed with regret Forgets by the time our eyes meet We both sat on the side of the road I ask you the kind of questions that I can't answer Sidetracked I can't hardly hold back But I'll do my best for you Do you know the meaning of these feelings on your face Do you know the water will not hide what lives within Do you know the way the rose buds grow as one's replaced Do you know i know the glow you hold beyond your salty grin A lone rose dammed by the look on your face But the block starts to break in a stranger's embrace Night falls and the river floods About a mile back you grew tulips My pale skin Cold to the touch (the touch) And a smile cracks through blue lips We both sat on the side of the road I ask you the kind of questions that I can't answer Sidetracked I can't hardly hold back But I'll do my best for you Do you know the meaning of these feelings on your face Do you know the water will not hide what lives within Do you know the way the rose buds grow as one's replaced Do you know i know the glow you hold beyond your salty grin Do you know how long I've waited to feel like this again The lives I've lived and the lines I've written Do you know how long I've waited to feel like this again As I've watched the world spin without me
