RubyJoyful - On The Way To Alone

12. On The Way To Alone (4:18)

Song for my dream girl on a cold summer night
Words in my head that I beckon to write
If I could just put them in order on time
I’d write you a song that was ever so fine

There’s Charlie and Marco and Billy and Dave
All of those pictures I took and I saved
Well if I had the chance well you know what I’d do
I’d take all those hours and I’d spend them with you

Lo and behold I’ve done it again
Wasted a moment when I’m sure there’s no end
Like watching the water rush under the stones
I’ll pass under you on the way to alone

I’d take all those months and those weeks and those days
Box ‘em all up by your feet they would lay
You’d tear off the wrapper, inside you would look
A gift back to you of the time that I took

You know I can’t love you now more than I do
Cross every river for a moment with you
If I were the sand babe and you were the night
You’d cover my dreams ‘till the first morning light

Lo and behold I’ve done it again
Wasted a moment when I’m sure there’s no end
Like watching the water rush under the stones
I’ll pass under you on the way to alone

So wear your glass heart on your torn flannel sleeve
Tell me you love me and I’ll never leave
Together we’ll pass all the things that we’ve known
Together we’ll pass on the way to alone
