INTRO:
   

                          
    A summer drive away from dying
                           
    a broken heart nothing to lose.
                             
    I know it hurts so bad just trying
                                
    to please the ones you hate to love.
                                             
And I wrote this note about someone I used to know
                 
so I'd remember how life can be so short 
                
when your left alone to wonder
                                      
how it is someone opens and shuts the door.

                      
I know your cold but come home.
                               
It's a shame how short we all have come.

  
  

                             
    You set your mind on cruise control
                            
    knuckles grip the wheel in fear to let it go.
                   
Love is empty,love is cruel,
                           
love it blindly breaks the rules.
                          
How could you have been a fool?
                            
It's something all of us go through.
                                 
You choke back tears and swallow lies
                                      
but those wiper blades won't fix your eyes,
                                                    
count on having clouded vision for at least a little while.

                            
And I know you're cold but come home
                                          
it's a shame how short we all have come.
                            
And I know you're cold but come home.
                                                  
Please don't face the headlights of the oncoming cars alone
                   
We wont forget the past.
                   
We wont forget the past. (And I know you're cold)

                                         
   Say all the answers and I will let you go

I wont look back
                
and I wont look back.
            
Say all the answers
                   
and I will let you go.

I will let you go.
               
I will let you go
                                       
Say all the answers and I will let you go

I won't look back
             
I won't look back
                                      
Say all the answers and I will let you go

I will let you go
               
I will let you go.

Please don't face the headlights of the oncoming cars alone
and I will let you go
