If I had a chance, babe To go back in time, maybe I'd try a time or two This life took you in, babe The same life that reminds me I could never love me like you do
The road is so hard, dear I bet there's some hometown bar that we could be But I just had a dream, dear It's you in the late fall, all warm, swarmed by the midday light
We're layin' on the roof of my car Feelin' young, feelin' numb, feelin' starved Of all the things that a moment can be This one's best kept a memory The purest parts of my heart are you and me
I love when your grin grows The corners of your lips liftin', lift me when I'm low I read in the good book The best things in life are free and need to be let go
So take one last good look Let's share one last cigarette I'll be gone by the time you're ashin' it Stop askin' things you know the answers to There ain't no world in which I am good for you
And we're layin' on the roof of my car Feelin' young, feelin' numb, feelin' starved Of all the things a moment can be This one's best kept a memory How the kindest parts of my mind are you and me
