David LaMotte - Dark And Deep lyrics

On a two lane road through the mountains I am taking the corners too fast My head is spinning as fast as my wheels Shifting from future to past So many things to attend to So many places to be The mountains roll right past my window Like a half-watched bar room TV If I could die just for a moment Let these worries work themselves out If it would all go on without me Tell me what's all this worry about? A promise is not like a moment A moment's not something you keep I've made too many promises lately And the woods are lovely, dark and deep I remember this friend down in Florida She used to get lost just for fun She'd take any turn that presented itself Just to see where the road might run It's amazing the places they'd take her The people and things that she'd find I've been meaning to look her up again But I can't seem to find the time Trying to make all the ends meet It's like I'm skating the edge of a knife I'm so busy making a living I've got no time for a life If I could die just for a moment Let these worries work themselves out If it would all go on without me Tell me what's all this worry about? A promise is not like a moment A moment's not something you keep I've made too many promises lately And the woods are lovely, dark and deep
