Thousand Mile Wish

Finger Eleven

forgive me if now I wear the face of worry

this time alone could never cause any doubt

but I've been cold too long

such a strange time to find myself coming down as the rain

with all the holes my love,

to fill up from the middle

this storm could stay all night



so can you stay until we close our eyes

til your dreams hold mine

just stay until we know we tried one more time



cause laughing lovers can overcome their closest demons

and they'll go on and they won't let go

they saw something that they know

has never come so close

can it stay here for us, for now?



can it stay until we know ourselves?

i'm torn as I tell

you're the story that I know and fell from

i'm so far into your story I don't know why

we think we're in control

when we lie between the lines



we'll find a line to follow

it's got to show real soon

or we'll never each this high



we climb a little further

cause there's nothing we can't get around together

further gets colder until nothing was all that I saw around



so we stay until the ground

that we can't come down from splits us away

maybe stars know why we fall

i just wish they were thinking out loud

oh, I could wish all night
