ON YOUR PORCH
i was on your porch,
the smoke sank into my skin
so i came inside to be with you
and we talked all night,
about everything we could imagine
cause come the morning ill be gone
and as our eyes start to close i turn to you
and i let you know that i love you

well my dad was sick
and my mom she cared for him
her love it nursed him back to life
and me i ran, i couldnt even look at him
for fear id have to say goodbye
and as i start to leave
he grabs me by the shoulder
and he tells me whats left to lose,
youve done enough
and if you fail well then you fail
but not to us
cause these last three years,
i know theyve been hard
but now its time to get out of the desert and into the sun
even if its alone

so now here i sit,
in a hotel off of sunset
my thoughts bounce off of sams guitar
and thats the way its been,
ever since we were kids
but now, now weve got something to prove
and i, i can see there eyes
but tell me something,
can they see mine

cause whats left to lose,
ive done enough
and if i fail well then i fail
but i gave it a shot
and these last three years,
i know theyve been hard
but now its time to get out of the desert and into the sun
even if its alone

i was on your porch last night,
the smoke it sank into my skin
