Lyrics
It’s true what I said, I wish I hadn’t said it
You meant every word, now you’re starting to regret it
Not fair that we care, but we can’t seem to kick it
How long can we stay right in the thick of it
I’m not gonna argue or play along the way I used to
Maybe tomorrow we’ll find a way to make no excuse, cause it’s
All in the cards for us, but we just keep laying the wrong thing down
Like we’re stuck on the side of the road with our thumbs in the air but our heads down
When it cuts this deep, does it mean that it’s over
Or could it be the very thing that brings us even closer, oh-oh
Well I know that you care, I can see you’re trying
We both need a little air and a little reminding that it’s
All in the cards for us, but we just keep laying the wrong thing down
Like we’re stuck on the side of the road with our thumbs in the air but our heads down
All in the cards for us, but we just keep laying the wrong thing
Down on the side of the road
And we really want to move on, let’s leave it all behind
Are you ready to move on, let’s leave it all behind
Press play, hear the engine turn and get going
Sometimes you can’t wait for that “ah-hah” moment
Keep your eyes on the road, see the horizon
Pretty soon you and I will be flying
It’s all in the cards for us, but we just keep laying the wrong thing down
