Lyrics
Eight months gone by and all I?ve got is time
I want so bad, for Love to turn to like
(I?ve wandered so much when love turns to like ? when love would turn to like)
On this desert fence, looking out into the night
Do I say the words or jump down to the other side
And these moments of insecurity
Aren?t as few and far between
As I?d like them to be
The grass is always greener on the other side
If only some had told me that was a lie
The best things in life mature with time
So there?s no need to walk the fence tonight
Mending fences, out on a limb in the night
I?m a cowboy dreamer, I have to know if this is right
The sun is beating down and blinding my eyes
I?m not sure I can handle it this time.
These moments of complexity
Where my emotions get the best of me
Are so blinding
The grass is always greener on the other side
If only some had told me that was a lie
The best things in life mature with time
So there?s no need to walk the fence tonight
The best things in life mature with time
But you erased all my doubts tonight
But when I looked over the fence tonight
I realized you?re all I need in my life
And these moments of insecurity
Aren?t as few and far between
As I?d like them to be
These moments of insecurity in my cowboy dreams
