lyrics

There was a time when love was mine
I had a woman I thought wouldn't leave
And with that love I traveled above
The desires that desired me

After a while and thousands of miles
That woman I thought wouldn't leave
She had enough while I traveled above
And she snuck out from under me

When I came down I looked around
For that woman I thought wouldn't leave
But she was long gone, so I grew fond
Of any lover that would love me

I just couldn't escape from that love I made
With that woman I thought wouldn't leave
Each traveling heart had bags from the start
They just rested their travels with me

They know life doesn't stop when you're lost
And death comes like a thief when you're lost
It's empty men, empty women when you're lost
But when you love something it'll carry you home
It will carry you home

I know there's somebody out there for me
She's the woman that won't leave
She will love me for the man I am
And the man I'm going to be

I just can't make the same mistakes
With that woman I know won't leave
Cause she'll take parts out of her heart
And give handfuls of love to me

I know life doesn't stop when you're lost
And death comes like a thief when you're lost
And there's only crumbs of comfort when you're lost
But when you love something it'll carry you home
It will carry you home

There was a time when love was mine
I had a woman I thought wouldn't leave
