Everybody's headed the same way
To know they'll be okay
Too big a risk to step out of line
No one's ever curious to see their possibilities
To linger over dreams means wasting time
But he moved differently
As I walked by he looked at me
His glance was filled with stories
So promising and bright
Another day went by
Wondering what's on his mind
Hoping that he'd call me up
To take me for a ride
Show me places afar
I'll go wherever you are
Turning nights into days
Make me think I'm the one
Keep me warm until dawn
Was it all in my head
You showed up every night for several weeks
I got used to the passenger seat
Talking 'bout our future in this town
You said you couldn't bear to stay at home
By tomorrow you'd be gone
Was waiting for you to pick me up
But your old man's car
Never showed up at my door
I didn't leave my place as days went by
In case you'd change your mind
Now I move differently
All those haunting memories
Of our quickly ending story
Are imprinted on my mind
Show me places afar
I'll go wherever you are
Turning love into faith
At night I thought you're the one
I didn't know until dawn
It was all in my head
I was always living a dream
Somewhere in between
The truth and what I believed
I knew that you'd slip away
Still I hoped you would stay
Was it all just a game
