lyrics

Life gets in the way of so many things
There's only one place I want to be
But want gets eaten up by need
You always say that I'm a young lady with priorities
To get me out the door to those places I need to be
You've got the best of intentions
So how do I tell you
Your name is climbing that list

What kind of magic have we made
That the rest of the world seems so minute?
Can it save me from today
'Cause I don't want to go without you
Will you love me either way
I'm not sure if I'm dreaming when I'm you
Or finally awake

I always said
I'm shaking the dust of this town
But it's like I inhabit another city
Whenever you're around
With tears in my eyes
I said I can't promise you that
You said don't cry, not now
When we've got so long to figure this out

What kind of magic have we made
That we would merge our plans and dreams
Can it save us from tomorrow
And the paths that would separate our
Two sets of feet
Will you love me either way
'Cause I'm not sure if I'm crazy when I'm with you
Or finally sane
