The Roads You Can Take Lyrics - A Better View Of The Rising Moon - 1997

We drove through the rain 

past the evergreen trees 

and we rolled just like the water 

along the veins of its leaves 

and we traced our memories 

into the shape of a map 

inside the palms of our hands 

bearing the secrets unkept 

and i dont think i could ever feel this way again 

you should be an actress because your so good at lying 

you bring my to my feet and then you leave me here crying 

if the feelings are gone, then what am i left with 

its true that we're young 

but love is said to be ageless 

the same is said of pain and desire and depression 

would it make it easier if i made you hate me 

i only wanna see you happy 

i only wanna see you smile 

ill take these pills and shove em down my throat to keep the words "i love you" from escaping my lips 

to keep me sleeping and keep me quiet, still 

"i love you" is the only thing i know for sure 

if its time you need my love, ill give it to you
