0:34No, I wasn't looking for a door into the morning again
0:42No, I wasn't thinking you would ever be more than a friend
0:50The years I've seen that fell between my date of birth and yours
0:58Fade before the altered shore of a river changing course
1:07No, I didn't think that I would ever feel this way again
1:15No, not with a story this long and this close to the end
1:23And though I try to fathom why home feels strange to me
1:32More and more the other shore is what I need to see
1:40Minutes slip away, minutes become days
1:48Minutes to downtown, minutes to the Coast Highway
1:56Forever on this freeway dreaming of my getaway
2:05Don't know how I'm still in LA
2:54Now, there may be nothing left for us
2:59But what pleasure can teach
3:03Now, deep in the moment with the future so out of reach
3:11I see that smile and even while it breaks my heart I laugh
3:19That's because this heart was already torn in half
3:28Minutes slip away, minutes become days
3:36Minutes to downtown, minutes to the Coast Highway
3:44And I'm out on this freeway, still plotting my getaway
3:52Don't know how I'm still in LA
No, I wasn't looking for a door into the morning again No, I wasn't thinking you would ever be more than a friend The years I've seen that fell between my date of birth and yours Fade before the altered shore of a river changing course No, I didn't think that I would ever feel this way again No, not with a story this long and this close to the end And though I try to fathom why home feels strange to me More and more the other shore is what I need to see Minutes slip away, minutes become days Minutes to downtown, minutes to the Coast Highway Forever on this freeway dreaming of my getaway Don't know how I'm still in LA Now, there may be nothing left for us But what pleasure can teach Now, deep in the moment with the future so out of reach I see that smile and even while it breaks my heart I laugh That's because this heart was already torn in half Minutes slip away, minutes become days Minutes to downtown, minutes to the Coast Highway And I'm out on this freeway, still plotting my getaway Don't know how I'm still in LA
