Lyrics

We're just 3 miles, from the rest stop
And she slams on the breaks
She said I tried to be but i'm not
And could you please collect your things
Well I don't wanna be cold
I don't wanna be cruel
But i've gotta find more than what's happened with you
So if you'd open up my door

(Chorus)
She said while you were sleepin'
I was listenin' to the radio and wonderin' what you were dreamin' when
It came to mind that I didn't care
So I thought hell if it's over
Then I had better end it quick or I could lose my nerve
Are you listenin'? can you hear me?
Have you forgotten?

Just 3 miles from the rest stop
And my mouth's too dry to rage
A light was shining from the radio
And I could barely see her face
But she knew all the words that I never had said
She knew the crumbled up promise of a broken down man
As I opened up my door

(Chorus)

But i've forgotten, yeah
Have you forgotten?
You just don't love to love like I love

(Chorus)

While you were sleepin'
I was listenin' to the radio and wonderin' what you were dreamin' when
It came to mind that I didn't care
I thought hell if it's over
I had better end it quick or I could lose all my nerve
Are you listenin'? can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
