Lyrics: Saw the world from up close, it ain’t much to look at Compared to you in your work clothes, waving hello from the driveway I can’t make myself whole, most days I’d be lucky just to get half But you’ve seen me in places so low, you can recognize when it’s real bad When it’s real bad Used to hate the silence, used to make me think about the old days And all the miles in my legs, the late flights and missed birthdays Out here I can hear your heartbeat, I can hear the start of a long sigh I can hear the song of the robin, I haven’t wrote my own in a long time And it’s just fine
‘Cause I don’t need my name back, throw my notebook in the basement Oh, I love you and I can’t fake that for a moment We go way back, we go way back Tell me I don't need options, that I have substance, that I'm important If it's only for letting dogs out, sweeping porches, to make me nothing Take me way back We go way back
The little pebble marks on your car door, the sound of your feet on the gravel Said I’m always tryna run from what I’m known for, baby that's the thing about a shadow I’ve never seen the rain fall so hard, honey, we’re north of nowhere now Heaven is a drink in the backyard, as we watch the storm touch down And it’s pouring out
And I don’t need my name back, throw my notebook in the basement Oh, I love you and I can’t fake that for a moment We go way back, we go way back Tell me I don't need options, that I have substance, that I'm important If it's only for letting dogs out, sweeping porches, well make me nothing Take me way back We go way back
Take me way, way back We go way back
