Blues Traveler - Her & Me lyrics

rate me

I see like I read

And I say like I write

And if I could touch the smile within her

I'd forget to be polite

And I'm marching in directions

In which she doesn't care to go

I don't deviate where we intersect

But to linger I walk slow

Am I coming to a stand still

Am I about to lose my mind

All I know for sure when she's around

Is I forget to watch the time

I know we head down different streets

But I don't want to walk away

So burns a lamp on amber

So I stutter and I stay

She gives me everything

She believes

She'll do anything

But she won't follow me

Something in her warms me

And I've been so very cold

Something in a memory

About a promise that I hold

Resigned to fates and destinies

Was the way I've always been

But the only one that interests me

Is the one that won't begin

But before we both can turn away

We look for one more glance

And find some brand new way to stall

So close to doing the dance

She gives me everything

She believes

She'll do anything

But she won't follow me

Is it happening to you

It must be

Cause I can feel it too

Our destiny

Take my hand and hold it tight

Hold on to my heart

Till the changing of the light

Tears us apart

So delicious the dilemma

So delinquent the denial

Try to stick together

For at least another mile

And I see no solution

Is the direction on her face

It's where I've always tended towards

It's always been the place

She has her own directions too

And she might fly off free

I wonder how to follow though

When I don't know how to see

She gives me everything

She believes

She'll do anything

But she won't follow me

She gives me everything

She believes

She'll do anything

But she won't follow me

But before we get too carried away

We both are here right now

When I hold on, I hold on forever

Even if I can't see how
