vocal chords

there i was

it happened fast

i was tired

out of gas

talk about

taking breaks

life's too short to play it safe

and in every way

you know i just want you to stay

beats something else

you know i never worry about myself

and in every way

i know that you still want to stay

and that's got to be the way it is

for awhile

i was stuck

i'll admit i was short on luck

you were bright

like a new day

all my troubles

went away

and in every way you know i just want you to stay

beats something else

you know i never worry about myself

and in every way

i know you still want to stay

and that's got to be the way it is

i am your love

there is no other voice

i want to hear but yours

whispering vocal chords

in a dream that i had

i was cruel

i was truly mad

i woke up filled with fear

i went away

cause you were near

but in every way you know i just want you to say

beats something else

you know i never think about myself

and in every way

i know that you still want to stay

and that's got to be

because i never even think of making it

in every way

you know i just want you to stay

and that's got to be the way it is
