He saw her once

He saw her twice

He thought that maybe this was by her own device

She came again

And she came on

Was this for real because it'd been so long

And far between

He could not believe

She knew his friends

She knew his past

She knew he talked to much and winded real fast

To longing eyes

He says goodbye

He turns and runs so he can't see her cry

He's left to roam

She's all alone

Don't you want

Don't you want

Don't you want to be there

Don't you want

Don't you want

Don't you want to be there

He's settled down

Sits down to play

He's losing focus cause it's been ten days

He sees the stars

He sees her face

A half remembered portrait that he can't erase

He's thinking back

He's losing track

He finds her words

She touched this page

He takes and presses them against his face

He's off and chasing dreams and she knows he

had to try

Would it be better if he'd stayed with her than

lived a lie

Of wasted time

That's sounding fine

Don't you want

Don't you want

Don't you want to be there

Don't you want

Don't you want

Don't you want to be there

Now one is one

And two is two

This simple truth I can't apply to you

And I can't keep beside her without both feet

on the ground

Got the hardest lesson learned and now it's

time to settle down

Don't you want

Don't you want

Don't you want to be there

Don't you want

Don't you want

Don't you want to be there

Don't you want

Don't you want

Don't you want to be there

Don't you want

Don't you want

Don't you want to be there
