Route

Today I took that route we took You and I so long ago Not so long after all, maybe a month or so I remember you sitting next to me Talking all the while I remember the roads that were misplaced, as we drove mile after mile You thought I was lost, I told you no I don't think that you believed me I thought that maybe you didn't know All I wanted was you beside me Later on we went to that park Where I used to try to be cool I couldn't do that around you You make me act like a fool On the way home you held my hand I don't know why even now You could have taken my heart right then I don't understand just how.. Now the walls are up and I still live I feel so empty now I gave everything I had to give I guess it wasn't... Enough or Today I took that route we took You and I so long ago The sun is gone The clouds are low Everything's so empty I remember you sitting next to me Talking all the while I remember the roads that were misplaced, as we drove mile after mile You thought I was lost, I told you no I don't think that you believed me I thought maybe you did not know All I wanted was you beside me Later on we went to that park Where I used to try to be cool I couldn't do that around you You make me act like a fool On the way home you held my hand I don't know why even now You could have taken my heart right then I don't understand just how.. Now the walls are up and I still live I feel so empty now I gave everything I had to give I guess it wasn't enough J.2007
