There's a hurricane and it's on the way Been sitting around this house for days I'm in here, waiting on the flood Been hanging out and holding on To every word in our favorite song These headphones are thicker than blood If I could hitch a ride on a time machine I would bring you right back here with me And I wouldn't have to watch you disappear Even though I said all the things that mattered most While I held on tight to the end of the rope I could keep you close, but I couldn't keep you here A lot can happen in a year Giving in, not giving up Maybe I didn't care enough I wish I could let you know somehow If I could hitch a ride on a time machine I would bring you right back here with me And I wouldn't have to watch you disappear Even though I said all the things that mattered most While I held on tight to the end of the rope I could keep you close, but I couldn't keep you here A lot can happen in a year A lot can happen in a year A lot can happen in a year Keep looking out, not looking down You won't find the answers in the ground Where will we be twelve months from now? If I could hitch a ride on a time machine I would bring you right back here with me And I wouldn't have to watch you disappear Even though I said all the things that mattered most While I held on tight to the end of the rope I could keep you close, but I couldn't keep you here A lot can happen in a year
