lyrics

It's been a while since I saw you
It's been a couple months, fo' sho'
It's been a while since I left you
But you're not lettin' me go
It's been a couple weeks since Sunday
And I'm a little lost, I know
But I think I'm getting closer
To finding my own home

Go 'head, get back and run away
You'll never find the words to say
I'll never be the one you see,
but that is quite alright with me

Like a constant ray of sunshine
In the cold December snow
You're like a path that no one's traveled
In a land where no one goes
I'm a cloud that's filled with raindrops
I'm the ice that coats the road
I'm like a never-ending winter,
When the summer's all you're owed

Go 'head, get back and run away
You'll never find the words to say
I'll never be the one you see,
but that is quite alright with me

You've got a smile like the sunset
And you've got eyes that melt the soul
You've got a heart as big as Texas
And I see you filling in all the holes
I'm a little left of center
Maybe not so apropos
But my heart's as big as Texas too,
I guess you'll never know

Go 'head, get back and run away
You'll never find the words to say
I'll never be the one you see,
but that is quite alright with me

Go 'head, get back and run away
You'll never have the words to say
I'll never be the one you need,
but that is quite alright with me
