John Mayer
"Lifelines"


You saw me sleeping on the couch tonight,
I know it serves you right
Makes you luckier than i
All the colors in the room have changed
Compared to yesterday
But brother I've discovered you

We're pushing on
We're passing through
And it wont be long
Till I walk with you
Tonight I'm down
I'm inside out
Staring at the pictures in the album you forgot about

And isn't it a shame
Times have changed
But isn't it strange
Lifelines stay the same, the same

We're never where we want to be
That's okay with me
That's just the way it is, they say
It feels like make believe
That you're my history
But brother I've rediscovered you and

We're pushing on
We're passing through
And it won't be long
Till I walk with you
Tonight I'm down
Yeah, I'm inside out
Staring at the pictures in the album you forgot about

Isn't it a shame
That times have changed
But isn't it strange
Lifelines stay the same

Round and round
I can't believe my heart has waited this long
All along, we've been children in a cold world
Where wonder was lost, every day
And if love was a compass
