Lyrics
?To Get To You?
Words and Music by Scott & Rebecca Sondergaard
Copyright2004
Intro
OOOOOOhs
Verse 1
The scent of you stays on your shirt, I hold it close to me as I lie awake
in the early morning hours thinking how pointless it is to be awake.
I called you twice a little sad you were not there
but you called me back later all drunk and sweet.
Verse 2
Passed out on the phone while talking, thinking back, find it kinda funny now
listening to your breath for a half an hour ?til the pre-paid phone card ran out.
Yet, I wonder why the clock ticks so slow
Waiting for you to come home.
Chorus
Time couldn?t pass fast enough, time couldn?t pass fast enough
time couldn?t pass fast enough, to get to you!
Verse 3
Well, everything seems like a waste of time when you?re not here
I?m too awake to sleep but, to tired to do much of anything.
Bored, alone, lost, distant to some extent
Not getting to hug my best friend.
Chorus
Time couldn?t pass fast enough, time couldn?t pass fast enough
time couldn?t pass fast enough, to get to you!
OOOOOOhs
Music Break
Verse 4
Well, could you love someone who doesn?t know when to slam on the brakes?
Could you care about me even if I don?t have what it takes?
If you want something real, I?ll wait and see what this love makes
but, keep in mind you better steer clear if you?re not planning on staying here.
Chorus
Time couldn?t pass fast enough, time couldn?t pass fast enough
time couldn?t pass fast enough, to get to you!
Time couldn?t pass fast enough, time couldn?t pass fast enough
time couldn?t pass fast enough, to get to you!
Ending
