lyrics

don’t look out your window
‘cause I’m not there,
see, that wall was too hard to climb
and I didn’t see any stairs,
but for now I might write you a letter
if only to call you to mind
for as long as talkin’ still ain’t easy
I can’t, and you can’t, and we can’t

[chorus]:
count on me to do much better
than the country songs on the radio
that tell you just what they mean
with the same old chords

and if the words they don’t come easy,
we could borrow some of those
from the old CDs we listened to obsessive
but now we’re shy to hear:
embarrassed to be around those old thoughts
that meant something before
and recall old moments lying by your side,
I can’t, and you can’t, and we can’t

[chorus]

and if we’re all headin’ on towards goodness
by words that sound just right
then for now we ought to trust that feeling,
if it works good, it’s good enough,
I ain’t singin’,
I ain’t even tapping my foot,
I ain’t singing words that aren’t easy,
I can’t, and you can’t, and we can’t

[chorus]
