fell asleep in the van
with a crick in my neck and a yearning in my brain
making myself homesick looking at your photograph
i do the best that i can to keep myself in check
but it`s easy to complain when our home sits
on the binding of the u.s. page of the road atlas side 26
hours to go and i`m holding my breath
squeazin` my spider-man pillow to death
i can see your eyes when i hold mine closed oh so tightly
absence will make your heart grow fonder
all of my dreams will come true
and if your heart starts to falter
i will tell you what i`ll do...
hold my breath all night
clench my fists so tight
wish with all my might
that i`ll never fear
grit my teeth too hard
travel very far
wish upon the stars
that i`ll never...
i never feared you with
thoughts of you near me
i camped out by the phone
putting scratches in my notebook
and waiting up `till dawn
humming this song back and forth
over and over again
i do the best that i can to keep myself in check
but it`s easy to complain when our home sits
on the binding of the u.s. page of the road atlas
and if my heart starts to wander
i will tell you what i`ll do...
hold my breath all night
clench my fists so tight
wish with all my might
that i`ll never fear
grit my teeth too hard
travel very far
wish on all the stars
that i`ll never...
i never feared you with
thoughts of you near me
i sleep as much as i can and hold my heart in my hand
it`s as much as i can stand
my weakness comes out once again
