Lyrics
🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics! 🎤
[Verse 1]
There’s an old hardwood tree
Staring through the glass at me
It’s been there since ’85
Sometimes I think it reads my mind, I guess it’s true
You can’t keep it from shining through[Chorus]
There’s no denying, I’ve been hiding
From this thing that’s chasing me
Yeah, I’ve been running, no good it’s showing
All these scars from yesterday
There comes a time you got to give it up
Spin that wheel and try your luck
You never know what you will find
It might be love this time[Verse 2]
I knew it from that very first smile
I could taste it like a hungry child
Not at all like all the risk
You know they say that last is best[Bridge]
Like a rainbow on a cloudy day
Just to shelter, takes my breathe away
