I don’t mind
no I don’t mind
oh I don’t mind
no I don’t mind

I miss your voice from time to time
I clear my head on late night drives
thinking of you when I hit stop signs
that one red word will always define
the feelings I’m feeling when you’re at my side
whispering something all through the night
I listen and nod and mumble a few lines
to keep you curled up with your head on my thigh
but the words hardly reach the other’s ears
we’re just grasping a reason to stay right here
I feel so much better whenever you’re near
now I know why I’ve felt like shit for years

I know where I’m headed
it’s a matter of “wait it out”
this road doesn’t dead end
I’ll make it some day then
I’ll come rushing back and
you’ll probably be married
I’ll be too damn late
to sweep you off your feet
and carry you away

so no no no
I don’t want to wait
I won’t I won’t
sit around all damn day
pissing groaning and moaning
claiming I’m alone
grab the keys - I’m going
and I won’t come back
until I finally have
a life you’d call your home
