Losing Game

Sometimes I feel like I'm living on the outside
Sometimes I wish I could see things from your eyes
But even from so many miles away
It still seems like yesterday
That I saw you block the light from my windowpane
Sometimes I can't picture you at all
Other times I see you everywhere I go
I dreamt that I was on the road again
The moon rose high and the air grew thin
Your shadow was waiting somewhere around the bend
Lately we've been trying to play a losing game
Looking for something that doesn't feel the same
Let me in or let me down easy
But don't go back again
Or we'll been running from ourselves until the very end
I said, "Slow down, wait until tomorrow"
Then she vanished in the summer air
The kids were all there dancing by the river but I never saw her there
Sometimes I feel like I could love anyone
With these dry eyes, but I could be wrong
Cause I'm still hoping she'll be back before too long
Lately we've been trying to win a losing game
Looking for something that doesn't feel the same
Let me in or let me down easy
But don't go back again
Or we'll been running from ourselves until the very end
