It's been six months, still remember the way that you'd wake up Stealing covers, turn on the light, I don't mind Now I'm in the car and I'm moving away Thinking to myself, have I made a mistake? If I were you, I would've asked me to stay, too late Now I'm driving through the tall trees Someone else is in the front seat But only for a minute, only for a minute Why can't you be next to me? Now I'm driving in the cold light Someone else is sharing my sky But only for a minute, only for a minute Why can't you be next to me? Took a new road, open the windows and drive slow Warm light on the water, warm light on my mind Hour after hour getting farther away I keep on moving so it's easy to say If I were you, I would've begged me to stay, but you're too late Now I'm driving through the tall trees Someone else is in the front seat But only for a minute, only for a minute Why can't you be next to me? Now I'm driving in the cold light Someone else is sharing my sky But only for a minute, only for a minute Why can't you be next to me? But only for a minute, only for a minute Why can't you be next to me? Why can't you be next to me? Why can't you be next to me? Why can't you be next to me? Why can't you be next to me? Why can't you be next to me? Now I'm driving through the tall trees Someone else is in the front seat But only for a minute Only for a minute Why can't you be here next to me? Now I'm driving in the cold light Someone else is sharing my sky But only for a minute Only for a minute Why can't you be next to me? And only for a minute Only for a minute Why can't you be next to me?
