Alternate Routes All That I See
Is there somewhere to be, when you’re watching TV
Should it feel like more than a Monday?
When you live in some town, hanging around
Are we all just waiting on someday?
See I miss you most days
In kaleidoscope ways
Calling you up keeps me normal.
But long distance is long, and it’s a long distance call
And a highway of miles in between us.
Sometimes I say it too much
But I can’t say it enough
If all we can find is a life we can’t hide from,
Then all I need is you.
And everyone needs something to believe in,
And all I can see is you,
All I can see is you.
It’s a 6 hour drive and I know it by heart,
But it’s never too far if you love me.
I’m a traveling man and I’m home when I can be,
I hope that you know that I love you.
And I can’t say it enough, it’s too much.
If all we can find is a life we can’t hide from,
Then all I need is you.
And everyone needs something to believe in
And all I can see is you.
And I don’t know how it is I still feel like a kid,
And these working close feel like a costume.
And we can’t break the rules, like we did back in school,
And we live and we wish in the well,
And everybody needs someone to tell.
Well we all need a place where were allowed to slow down,
And were allowed to hide out on the weekends.
400 miles, I’ll be home in while,
But I’m never on time if you know me.
If all we can find is a life we can hide from,
Then all I need is you.
Oh and everyone needs something to believe in
And all I can see is you
All I can see is you
Is you.
