We ordered up one more bottle of wine

You told me your story and I thought about mine

You said when you lost her you lost everything

It all started havin' a familiar ring. . .



So I asked you to take me some place quiet

We wound up at the river for the rest of the night

Somewhere around the break of day

I could hear it coming from a mile away



Chorus

So don't say that word

Not the one we both heard too much

You may think you do but you don't

It's just the fear of being alone



Reckless hearts can clear a path

Wider than a hurricane's aftermath

We've both traveled down that road

Where in the name of love anything goes



Chorus



Like a child in the night

With now one to hold you

And tell you everything's gonna be all right



I must admit it's been fun

But that's no reason to jump the gun

If this is real, time will tell

So let me bite my tongue and remind myself



Chorus



(Walt Aldridge, Bruce Miller)
