about

Co-written with Dan Rivers.

lyrics

If you're fixed on takin' off that ring
Guess I'll take mine off too
Moving truck it took everything
Everything except the truth

Things are gonna' change for us
Kids will learn my new address
Every other weekend ain't enough
But I'll take what I can get

There's a lesson in the losin' and a grace in each goodbye
Bittersweet like all things human we can't know until we try
Sometimes I don't see it comin' other times it's outta' reach
Ain't we all in search of something between what is and what could be

After all the wishing
The waiting and the walking out
Somehow I quit the chasing
Grabbed hold of here and now
