I was on your porch last night,
the smoke sank into my skin
so i came inside to be with you

and we talked all night,
about everything we could imagine
cause come the morning I'll be gone


and as our eyes start to close
i turn to you and i let you know that

i love you

well my dad was sick

and my mom she cared for him
and her love it nursed him back to life
and me i ran,

i couldnt even look at him
for fear I'd have to say goodbye


and as i start to leave
he grabs me by the shoulder and he tells me
"what's left to lose,

youve done enough
and if you fail well then you fail but not to us
cause these last three years,

i know they've been hard
but now it's time to get out of the desert and into the sun
even if it's alone"


so now here i sit,
in a hotel off of sunset

my thoughts bounce off of Sam's guitar
and that's the way it's been,
ever since we were kids but now,

now weve got something to prove

and i,

i can see there eyes
but tell me something, can they see mine
cause what's left to lose,

ive done enough
and if i fail well then i fail but i gave it a shot
and these last three years,

i know they've been hard
but now its time to get out of the desert and into the sun even if it's alone


i was on your porch last nite,
the smoke it sank into my skin
