Don't wanna talk to you
Done all the talkin'
I'm gonna do
Don't wanna walk with you
Done all the walkin'
I'm gonna do
Too many times
Been down this road
Too many times
Givin’ up on teasin’ you
Done all the teasin'
I'm gonna do
Givin’ up on pleasin’ you
Done all the pleasin'
I'm gonna do
Too many times
Been down this road
Too many times
I've driven to the limit
Of miles I'm gonna burn
No sign of your intention
To help me make the next turn
Down this road
I’ve been down this road
Engine is revvin'
Got plenty of rubber to peel
Fuel is on high
But you will never take the wheel
Take it baby
Don't wanna get tough with you
Done all the gettin' tough
I'm gonna do
Don't wanna get rough with you
Done all the gettin' rough
I'm gonna do
Too many times
Been down this road
Too many times
I've driven to the limit
Of miles I'm gonna burn
No sign of your intention
To help me make the next turn
Down this road
I’ve been down this road
Engine is revvin'
Got plenty of rubber to peel
Fuel is on high
But you will never take the wheel
I’ve been down this road
Too many times

I would trap the beams
Of a million stars
And capture the bloom of the moon
I would brush the sky
With my fingertips
And gather the dew out of the blue
If I knew what to do
I would do it
If I knew what to do
I would do it
I would catch the tears
Of the ocean wide
And harness the waves on the shore
If I knew what to do
I would do it
If I knew what to do
I would do it
Maybe it’s so simple
That I don’t understand
Won’t you tell me
How to make you
Ask for my hand
I would sing your words
As I walk for miles
Just chasing your dreams through the years
If I knew what to do
I would do it
If I knew what to do
I would do it

Every time I look at you
Listen to you
I whisper a prayer to you
Oh, baby
I only wanna love you
If you'd let me dance with you
Closer to you
I'd kiss you and swear to you
Oh, baby
I only wanna love you
Won't you stop for a minute
Let me prove to you
The things I imagine are true
Give me all your attention
I'll do every little thing
I was created to do
Everything I'd do for you
Honest and true
Would show how I care for you
Oh, baby
I only wanna love you
Won't you stop for a minute
Let me prove to you
The things I imagine are true
Give me all your attention
I'll do every little thing
I was created to do
Every time I look at you
Listen to you
I whisper a prayer to you
Oh, baby
I only wanna love you

I pretend that I don’t miss you
I pretend that I’m free of your spell
I pretend that I never think of you
I pretend that I don’t get lonely
I pretend that I’ m a happy girl
I pretend that I never fell for you
I could drown myself
In tears of regret
Or astound myself
And just give what I get
Or stay in bed
Perfectly still
Let my mind lead me
I pretend that I’m not pretending
I pretend that your kisses are mine
I pretend that my soul is holding you
I could drown myself
In tears of regret
Or astound myself
And just give what I get
Or stay in bed
Perfectly still
Let my mind lead me
I pretend that I don’t get lonely
I pretend that I’m a happy girl
I pretend that I never fell for you
I could drown myself
In tears of regret
Or astound myself
And just give what I get
Or stay in bed
Perfectly still
Let my mind lead me
I pretend that I don’t miss you
I pretend that I’m free of your spell
I pretend that I never think of you

You didn’t catch my hand
And walk that moonlit mile
Shield me from the cold
Or tease me with your smile
I wanted you baby
To take me home
I needed you baby
To whisper in the dark
But you didn’t share your secret words
Or touch me with your spark
Cause if you did
You’d be here tonight
Cause if you did
You’d be here tonight
You didn’t lay me down
Unveil me with your plea
Conquer me with love
And tears of ecstasy
I wanted you baby
To take me home
I needed you baby
To whisper in the dark
But you didn’t share your secret words
Or touch me with your spark
Cause if you did
You’d be here tonight
Cause if you did
You’d be here tonight
Yes I know
It was just a dream
All dressed up
Like a memory
If that’s what I believe
Then someday I will see
You didn’t mean that much to me
Baby you didn’t mean that much to me
Cause if you did
You’d be here tonight
Cause if you did
You’d be here tonight

Not my road
Not my shed
Not my friends who come to call
Not my house,
Not my bed
Not my children down the hall
And when the phone rings, it’s not for me
This is not my world
And if I think about leaving
I’ll be gone
I’ll be gone
Not my past
Not my pain
Not my mem’ries in the drawer
Not my hope
Not my dream
Not my name upon the door
And when the phone rings, it’s not for me
This is not my world
And if I think about leaving
I’ll be gone
And when the phone rings, it’s not for me
This is not my world
And if I think about leaving
I’ll be gone
And if I think about leaving
I’ll be gone
And I’m thinking about leaving
And I’m already gone
I’m already gone
