Rabbit In The Road

Verso 1: You’re scared of getting stuck Scared to be alone You’re scared of your own history And now you’re scared of all my songs But there’s a beating in your chest Just like the one in mine And I remember you smiling I remember all the time Oh, we’ll still grow old Not side by side but on our own I cannot say I trust you And I don’t want to be your friend But I think I see your goodness again Verso 2: Your love is unsurpassed It burns bright and it burns fast It’s not the kind of love you can count on But it’s stunning while it lasts You’re driven by the impulse It never lets you rest And I know you didn’t mean to hurt me You just did what you do best Oh, we’ll still grow old Not side by side but on our own I cannot say I trust you And I don’t want to be your friend But I think I see your goodness again Ponte: Sparkling eyes in a crowded room I still think of you in the springtime When your favorite flowers bloom When your favorite flowers bloom Verso 3: You stepped out of the car For the rabbit in the road You couldn’t bear to watch him suffer Lying mangled in the snow With your hands around his neck You spared his misery How swift you gave that rabbit What you couldn’t give to me Oh, we’ll still grow old Not side by side but on our own I cannot say I trust you And I don’t want to be your friend But I think I see your goodness again
