lyrics

I think you were right when you said you remind yourself of James Dean
If I had ever been the one to be you, I don’t think that I could ever be that cool

I know the girl broke your heart something fierce
You’ve given up on love, you don’t understand it anymore

Oh no
Oh no
Oh no

The world is made of money and the earth is made of dirt
You count all the numbers and I count all the words
Maybe if we’re lucky, by the end of our lives,
We’ll calculate a plan for the heart to survive

All the bends and the breaks and the rips and the tears
The hits that it takes and the floating through the air
Through the last of the lies and the honest goodbyes
In the middle of the road in the middle of the night

And the rest that it finds on the porch with some wine
And friends who understand it most of the time
And the wind and the moon and the stars and the fear
And all that it takes just to hold back the tears

Oh no
Oh no
Oh no

I think you were right when you said you remind yourself of James Dean
Sometimes I wonder maybe that’s all you really need
