In the Road

She calls early in the morning about money that I might have spent
It's a classic case of I dont know where it went
I want this to read like a letter
And I want it to ring like a phrase
Somewhere out in the road as the sky's last light burns away

You call I write I may answer
I many never send anything

Youll leave and you'll go
It's alright if we dont remember

Did I say I'd stay
What if I was wrong?

I'll be out in the road before you know that Ive gone
I'll be out in the road before you know that I've gone

And I'm tired of reflection and warning
Keeping myself at the centre of it all
We lie out of boredom
Just to stall the inevitable

You're waking in bed
I light a candle you said
You were leaving before the sun
And what does it mean to mean something and never get anything done?

I lie in wait for the better part of the day

To be out in the road as the skys last light burns away
To be out in the road as the sky's last light burns away
To be out in the road as the sky's last light burns away
