The Difference - Lyrics by Matchbox 20


Lyrics
Slow dancing on the boulevard 
\r
In the quiet moments while the city’s still dark
\r
Sleepwalking through the summer rain and the tired spaces
\r
You could hear her name when she was warm and tender
\r
And you held her arms around you
\r
There was nothing but her love and affection
\r
She was crazy for you
\r
Now she's part of something that you lost
\r

\r
[Chorus]
\r

\r
And for all you know
\r
This could be
\r
The difference between what you need
\r
And what you wanna be
\r
Yeah, what you wanna be
\r

\r
Night swimming in her diamond dress
\r
Making small circles move across the surface
\r
Stand watching from the steady shore
\r
Feeling wide open and waiting for
\r
Something warm and tender
\r
Now she's moving further from you
\r
There was nothing that could make it easy on you
\r
Every step you take reminds you that she's walking wrong
\r

\r
[Chorus]
\r

\r
Yeah, for all you know
\r
This could be
\r
The difference between what you need
\r
And what you want
\r

\r
Every word you never said
\r
Echoes down your empty hallway
\r
And everything that was your world
\r
Just came down
\r

\r
Day breaking on the boulevard
\r
Feel the sun warming up your second hand heart
\r
Light swimming right across your face
\r
And you think maybe someday, yeah
\r
Maybe someday
\r

\r
[Chorus]
\r

\r
For all you know
\r
Yeah, this could be
\r
The difference between what you need
\r
And what you want
\r

\r
Yeah, for all you know
\r
For all you know
\r
Yeah, for all that you know
\r
This is what you wanna be
\r
Girl, what you wanna be
\r

\r
