I'm Not AskingI’ll stay inWatch TV Drink just like I used to drink And call you on your old phone Can’t go back Can’t go forward Stuck inside this terrible storm Swallowing the same sea I’m not dreaming any big dreams I’m not looking for a gold wedding ring I know you’ve got walking feet Always looking for a reason to leave I’m not asking you to save me This is where I made my bed It’s no surprise I’ll lie in it With someone who is long gone And this old weight It’ll fall But for right now it’s all I’ve got As I’m standing at your front door I’m not thinking I will stay long I’m not asking you to build me a home Just a place I already been Same old people saying the same wrong things Same old story we always wrote Same old open road with nowhere to go I’m not asking you to save me After the rain has all fallen And the air is filled with gold It feels like everything is new With no excuses in my mouth No promises left to doubt It feels like everything is new And I’m not asking you to love me |
