Why

Why do I keep driving across these county lines

Knowing good and well I can't change her mind?

And how do I sort through these emotions deep down inside

I feel a commotion rise up high

As I sit on this porch swing singin' prayers to the sky

Don't wanna be the man she said she forgot

But I don't know why

Never once have I stared down the barrel of a gun

But my heart felt the pain as these strings came undone

And I don't know why

Wishing for a dream to come true, but I keep

Waking up to a shadow of you around me everywhere I go

Hoping for a lifetime with you is like an open door

To a terrible view, it's time for me to move on

So I sit on this porch swing singin' prayers to the sky

I don't wanna be the man she said she forgot

But I don't know why

Never once have I stared down the barrel of a gun

But my heart felt the pain as these strings came undone

And I don't know why

Now that I have opened my heart

Changed my desire

I'm pressing restart

'Cause I know love just comes and goes

As I sit on this porch swing singin' prayers to the sky

I don't wanna be the man she said she forgot

But I don't know why

Never once have I stared down the barrel of a gun

But my heart felt the pain as these strings came undone

And I just don't know why
