Volunteers

Ten year volunteer, I want the job to disappear for good
Love won't compensate for all the things we never say
And all the things we should

Bottom line it might be time for you and I to say goodbye to what we did
And what we never tried

Sunlight, silhouettes, and dogwood trees
Swayin' all alone in the Carolina breeze
I asked for your hand and you asked for a plea
Tell me now girl is this the way it's gonna be

Open heart, open door, choose whatever metaphor you like
Hear me out before you go, I never meant this shit before: I lied

When all is said and all is done you always were the only one that understood
The way this song was sung

Sunlight, silhouettes and dogwood trees
Swayin' all alone in the Carolina breeze
I asked for your hand and you asked for a plea
Tell me now girl is this the way it's gonna be

Sunlight, silhouettes and dogwood trees
Swayin' all alone in the Carolina breeze
I asked for your hand and you asked for a plea
Tell me now girl do I stay or do I leave
