It’s only 10:00 and this blistering heat, it just won’t stop
And for the very first time this year, I pray it won’t.
With every rising degree, I wish that the part of you in me
Would separate and saturate my clothes.

So, honey, don’t you act your age
Tell me why you feel this way. Are you off feeling lonely?
Cause I don't know when the tables spun on me.
It seems I’ve been convicted, while you’re being lifted out my arms.
A season's change and I'm lost looking for something.

So we wait for the loneliness to come around always
And we wait for someone to pick us off the ground. Oh yeah.

And it’s hard to keep the will to fight when nothing turns out right
And all you thought felt good was wrong.
But we know we’ll settle down again like dust blows in the wind
All my roads to you are short.
And I want to go.

And sometimes, it makes me lose my mind
I think about all the things we’d yet to do.
I contract the blues as this world adds up in twos.
Now, two guitar strings add to things that broke for you.

So we just wait for the loneliness to come around again
And we both know the date, but couldn’t stop time from turning ‘round. Oh no.

And it’s hard to keep the will to fight when nothing turns out right
And all you thought felt good was wrong.
But we know we’ll settle down again like dust blows in the wind
All my roads to you are short.
And I want to go.

Cause it’s hard to see sometimes. Oh no.
That these weren’t lies, or just things to pass the time. Oh no.
But even solid facts must be buried and later found in time.
And that’s hard to see sometimes.
