(Intro)
Last night,
everything was movin’
so fast
I could barely keep
track
Of my offenses or
your defenses
In
hindsight, I
woulda, coulda, shoulda not
gone there
But
left without a word to
spare
Was it
your offenses or
my defensiveness?
That’s got me thinkin’ that we’re
never gonna get it right
I wanna straighten this before the sun goes down tonight
If I could only fight the
bitterness I feel inside
This thing is eatin’ me alive
(Chorus)
Well, I’m
right here and you’re
right there
And God
knows we’ve got to start
somewhere
‘Cause I’m
messed up and you’re
broken
And those
shots we fired, are still
smokin’
If I’m
right here and you’re
right there
And God
knows we’ve got to start
somewhere
‘Cause I’m
messed up and you’re
broken
And those
shots we fired, shots we fired are still smokin’
I’m tossin’ and
turnin’ on the things I’d
undo
As I
wrestle with the painful
truth
My
sleep escapes me as
guilt berates me
Ex
hausted, the
memories are drawing s
o near
I can
see it like a world
premiere
When did
my objective lose
all objectiveness?
That’s got me thinkin’ that we’re
never gonna get it right
I wanna straighten this before the sun goes down tonight
If I could only fight the
bitterness I feel inside
This thing is eatin’ me alive (This thing is eatin’ me alive)
(Chorus)
Well, I’m
right here and you’re
right there
And God
knows we’ve got to start
somewhere
‘Cause I’m
messed up and you’re
broken
And those
shots we fired are still
smokin’
If I
need you and you
need me
How can you
turn your back and just
leave me?
When I’m
right here and you’re
right there
And
God knows we’ve got to start
somewhere
I
said some things that I regret
And
if I could, I’d take ’em back
If
I could turn my words around
You
wouldn’t hear a sound
But
here I am and there you are
The
space between us is not so far
I’m
reaching out my hand in love
before the fading sun
Forgive me for what I’ve done
Am Dm E Am (2x)
(Chorus)
Well, I’m
right here and you’re
right there
And God
knows we’ve got to start
somewhere
‘Cause I’m
messed up and you’re
broken
And those
shots we fired are still
smokin’
If I
need you and you
need me
How can you
turn your back and just
leave me?
When I’m
right here and you’re
right there
And
God knows we’ve got to start
somewhere
