Before I Do

You're somewhere else tonight,
alone and getting high
in the thin air on the mountain
under Colorado skies.
I know it's only been three weeks,
but I'm drunk for the tenth time.
I'm lonely in this living room
without you by my side.
I’ve been hurt before. Have you?
Right now, I’m afraid to move.
I wanna know I ain’t just settling for you.
But settlin’ ain’t something either of us do
anymore.
I’m somewhere else tonight
when we’re both here getting high.
I’m sorry I can’t always be
present all the time.
But I’ll smile when you laugh,
and hold you when you cry,
and join you in the moments
when Im more than numb inside.
I’ve been hurt before. Have you?
Do you have the same scars that I do?
I wanna tell the heavens and the firmament to move
before I do.
I’ve been hurt before. Have you?
All I can promise is the truth.
I wanna love you like you deserve, not like I do.
I hope what I got’s enough for you.
