You can take me away from my sorrow

But you can't take away my scars

I stand in the middle of the highway

Playing chicken with the cars

It's not that I'm destructive I

Just want to feel your pain



If there was any way I could have known

I would trip and fall away from you

If there was anything I could have done

To stay in love with you--with you



I wish I could say to you what you are to me

But I know it would make you sad

You are too good to be my lover

But you've been the greatest dad I ever had

You made my life so lovely I

Just had to mess it up



If there was any way I could have known

I would trip and fall from your grace

If there was anything I could have done

To stay in love with you



If I knew I'd do it twice just to make sure that

I did it right



If there was any way that I could have known

I would always need to be alone

If there was anything I could have done

To stay in love with you

I'd be in love with you--with you
