Falter On The Bridge

Would it be okay to speak the truth
I falter on the bridge between old age and youth
And she says I don’t need to doubt
Or I’m bound to do without
So I let the words slip
And pass my lips
Do you know who I am
The girl with a plan
As I see you in a suit and tie
Fifty years or so til we say goodbye
What do you think
I pour you another drink
To help you steady your nerves
I feel the flash of you as the car swerves
And know that the words are done
But you are the one
Who silences noise
You were never one of the boys
But an ocean to span
I’d do my best but I dunno if I can
Ever be what I was before
But shur isn’t that what lovin’s for
And I break a smile across a desert scene
You are the fuckin’ dream
