What if I get scared for the Encore?
But we're supposed to take
Every Gamble, babe
Will you still look at me the same?
Can I still spend the night
Every Sunday?
Can I still spill my guts
Over the ashtray?
I know you'll never find another like me
What if you had to have the closest thing?
When I'm gone for months at a time
Love in my back bone, flows through the bloodline
Hold you over, over the phone
While you stuck in the lunch line
At home all alone, while I'm out on the road
Another lover that you call mine
We cover ground at the buzzer
But I think we got a runner
In your 4runner, crossing over state lines
Every late night, every missed call
Every date night, that I dropped the ball
If you don't want me, I don't know
It's time that I pack up and go
Gravity's heavier when we're together
But it can't be the reason I don't
What if you had to act like you know me?
And mom and dad only call cuz they're lonely
Oh what a mess I've made
Trying to make everything work
I'm losing sleep in a bus, on a bunk bed
People to meet, I can't trust anything anyone says
And I couldn't even catch a minute
Just to think of you
Just to think of you
Watch the sunrise in Colorado
Chase it all the way to California
Two AM in the morning in Chicago
A text from you that reads
Oh darlin I adore ya
(Yeah)
Oh Darlin I adore ya
Will I fall in love with my songs
The way I fall for you?
Can I have it all?
Can I eat the cake too?
You could have the world if I gave it to you
Every late night, every missed call
Every date night, that I dropped the ball
If you don't want me, I don't know
It's time that I pack up and go
Gravity's heavier when we're together
But it can't be the reason I don't
What if you had to act like you know me?
And mom and dad only call cuz they're lonely
Oh what a mess I've made
Trying to make everything work
I'm losing sleep in a bus, on a bunk bed
People to meet, I can't trust anything anyone says
And I couldn't even catch a minute
Just to think of you
Just to think of you
Well, I went out for the Encore
I tried my best
And when I came home to you
I finally could rest
