Trying to prove who's right
And if it all goes crashing into the sea
If it's ju...

Yellow diamonds in the light

Too wrong and not enough right
Three words we said in the night
Before we held the fire
High five me brother it's amazing

We're all standing with our backs against the wall,
Sooner or later
Waiting on a phone that never calls, at all
Heartbreak comes rollin' in like a sto...

Tired of the same song everyone's singing
I'd rather be lost with you...

And when the smoke cleared, it took her breath away
She said she didn’t believe 'it could happen to me'

Like a lonely car and a time lapse camera

 I miss that dirty bar and your red bandanna
 Playing air guitar...
