Well I can't get too close without wanting all of you

So I'll settle right into this back seat

But to be honest, I'm not sure if I can take the solitude

It's been a long time running

Since I sighted my first love

And this mountainside's only getting steeper

My breath's burning in my lungs

I wonder when I'm gonna catch a break

or at least be able to breathe easier

This drive is telling me to be all that I can't for her

You're not holding up your end of the bargain,

but I'll continue to hold up mine

'Cause I've always been a betting man

And I'm dying for you to prove me right

I see the potential you have inside

Maybe that's why I've continued to fight

You just can't see all that you are to me

So I'll just have to learn to be alright

Without you by my side

My bed seems so much colder at night

This chill doesn't seem to be going away

So I'll acquire a taste for its bite



Give these dry lips words to speak

A wandering soul, hopeful for living springs

Searching tirelessly for a well, blue and deep

From which to pull up strength, something cool to drink

There are deserts hidden deep inside you and me

Come now, sit for a while and breathe

You don't have to say a thing

Darling, your silence says everything



You're not holding up your end of the bargain,

but I'll continue to hold up mine

'Cause I've always been a betting man

And I'm just dying for you to prove me right



I just want to know your story

Learning, so I may love you complete

'Cause if we dig deep enough

There are wells hidden deep inside of you and me



You're not holding up your end of the bargain,

but I'll continue to hold up mine

'Cause I've always been a betting man

And I'm just dying for you to prove me right
