When I win you over We'll count the flowers growing in the yard And if I call you sober Would you forgive for all the times I fell apart The light has gotten dimmer The longer I investigate the cause Said i'd always love you You said youre movin out Your'e movin on I kept holdin' onto you Like the widow to the grave And I know theres nothin' left for me to say But im stayin' awake Anyway And when we get much older We'll remember why wer'e better than the rest Your head atop my shoulder Watching while the colors paint the west You'll be reading with me While I can lift the leaves from off the grass Hard to say you left me No easier to say that nothin' lasts I kept holdin' onto you Like the blood against the blade And I know theres nothin' left for me to say But im stayin' awake Anyway Woah oh oh oh oh Woah oh oh oh oh Say you know, and I will lead you home So when I win you over We'll count the flowers growing in the yard
