about

Written on a airplane serviette, heading westward back to the drawing board, whilst tethered to a plummeting long distance relationship...

lyrics

If you take away the miles
and the years in between
If you take away the smiles
and the lives that add meaning
This stony place is where
I will reside
But you can call me up, I suppose
Anytime you feel like

These tears have dried
This pen has run its course
And I'm out here
Just trying to stay on this good horse
Why, why did you live in this lie?

Stop now before we push this thing too far
You're taking things for granted
Which you never should in love
And every time we go 'round it's like
We are just spinning in the park
We are going to have to face it
We are Spun to the Margin

Each man has his fears
I know I have a few
I'm coming on thirty
and it's me or you

Small talk has its place
But not by waterfalls
(They're too beautiful)
In this one horse town, I swear
You just can't fall

You've really got to keep your head
When time's a wastin'
Don't want to run the risk
of loosing this

All the way out here
Under those daylight stars
This moon was burning bright
With the sun not far behind
Look, I thought I had seen it all
From far, far away
But standing in this bank line
I swore I heard you say...

If you take away the miles
and the years in between
If you take away the smiles
and the lives that add so much meaning
Why, why, why would you live in this lie?

Stop now before we push this thing too far
You're taking things for granted
that you never should in love
And every time we go' round, it's like
We are just spinning in the dark
We're going to have to face it
We're Spun to the Margin
