seven hours

from the moment i knew you loved me

i could tell as well that you couldn't stay

in the morning when you left me

there were bird songs

but i didn't hear a thing as you drove away

could seven hours be so long

that we can't erase these wrongs

and start again?

i guess my first mistake was

taking you for granted

i guess i never saw the you who drove away

now i'm feeling something

much much more like frantic

cause i'm so scared this bird has flown

she's flown away

could seven hours be so long

that we can't erase these wrongs

cause my heart is beating

somewhere on the way

if i don't make it there

and i've wasted all these tears

then i should stay

seven hours away

i couldn't see past my windshield until waco

when i pulled aside the road to wipe my eyes

all i know is once before

i took my changes

i'm so scared this bird has flown for bluer skies
