lyrics

Wish I Was Around

i won't say a thing
'til the words come out right
so please go to sleep
because that won't be tonight
i've been up for days
and the miles i've gained
were sweet and slow
and alone

so carrie, sweet carrie
would you carry me home?
if i did too much drinking
to get on the road
'cause the motels cost money
and the liquor does too
and these days we both know what i'd choose
these days we both know what i'd choose

this is my best disguise
from your pretty brown eyes
you know the more that i stop
the more i wish i was around
the more i wish i was around
the more i wish i was around
the more i wish i was around
