Are you busy
Could I bend your ear a while
There are things I'm mulling over
And I cannot quite tell why
I can taste her on my lips
I can smell her on my clothes
And I'm scared she might be
Everything I wanted
I was drinking on a heartache
And it was cold and it was strong
And I wasn't really looking
For someone to come along
But she was talking to my friend
At a bar across town
And I wondered if I
Even had the courage
Sometimes
We don't get to choose
Something else is
Moving in the distance
Hold tight
Just keep listening and speaking
Your heart can do the thinking
This time
A couple days had passed
I saw her calling on my phone
And I agreed to meet her
On some downtown patio
And I saw her eyes light up
As the sun was going down
And everything looked blue
In the distance
Sometimes
We don't get to choose
Something else is
Moving in the distance
Hold tight
Just keep listening and speaking
Your heart can do the thinking
This time
