Roots

Alone with you
The first time since September
It's been a while since I've seen your face
You talk right through
And you don't stop to breathe, but I don't care
I don't want to remember

We tried to plant roots
Finding it too fallow
Swim, but we're too shallow
To be decent and oh
If you could just remind me
Go back in time and find me
Just one evening to waste away with you

It's nothing new
And it's what all of our friends did
Young blood, trying to play house
But now it feels like
When you packed your bags
Why didn't I stop you?
What the hell was I thinking?

We tried to plant roots
Finding it too fallow
Swim, but we're too shallow
To be decent and oh
If you could just remind me
Go back in time and find me
Just one evening to waste away with you

I'm on the interstate
And I'm calling
And I'm calling you
If you're stlll awake
Do you wanna
Do you wanna go?
Am I just too late
To be running
To be running
Back knocking at your door?

We tried to plant roots
Finding it too fallow
Swim, but we're too shallow
To be decent and oh
If you could just remind me
Go back in time and find me
Just one evening to waste away with you
