He saw her once He saw her twice He thought that maybe this was by her own device She came again And she came on Was this for real because it'd been so long And far between He could not believe She knew his friends She knew his past She knew he talked to much and winded real fast To longing eyes He says goodbye He turns and runs so he can't see her cry He's left to roam She's all alone Don't you want Don't you want Don't you want to be there Don't you want Don't you want Don't you want to be there He's settled down Sits down to play He's losing focus cause it's been ten days He sees the stars He sees her face A half remembered portrait that he can't erase He's thinking back He's losing track He finds her words She touched this page He takes and presses them against his face He's off and chasing dreams and she knows he Had to try Would it be better if he'd stayed with her than Lived a lie Of wasted time That's sounding fine Don't you want Don't you want Don't you want to be there Don't you want Don't you want Don't you want to be there Now one is one And two is two This simple truth I can't apply to you And I can't keep beside her without both feet On the ground Got the hardest lesson learned and now it's Time to settle down Don't you want Don't you want Don't you want to be there Don't you want Don't you want Don't you want to be there Don't you want Don't you want Don't you want to be there Don't you want Don't you want Don't you want to be there
