Oh dont waste too much time planning Or you'll get rug ripped out And the only way you'll be satisfied Is learning to live with out. But some plan for the kingdom of heaven And some take their chances and bet lucky seven I don't know what to believe I just show up and breathe anymore. And I wanna lay my head down on you Because youre the only solid thing in this room A room full of dressers, professors, lookers, hookers If I don't get out I'll do something I don't wanna do. And I wanna lay my head down on you. Was it so long ago That we sat and talked in your car Your things were all packed And the place you were headed not really that far Years later I think That I would have been much more alive To have taken you up on your offer and taken that drive
