Haim - Water’s Running Dry lyrics

We were thinking we were wise There was a moment you and I We saw a stranger cross our lives That we could make it if we tried And now this car won’t drive this road There are some things I should’ve known There are some things on my mind But I won’t pick up the line ‘Cause I don’t have the heart to mend I don’t wanna finish what we started I think you could be an honest man But I’m a woman who’s just too guarded We know it’s a big mistake Nothing like the ones we’ll make Nothing left to do, but let it lie But let’s not wait till water’s running dry Now, I don’t wanna compromise ‘Cause, baby, both of us have tried You know it hurts me letting go It hurts me more than I could show I close my eyes, see an open road There are some things I wanna know There are some things on my mind But I don’t know how to see it right ‘Cause I don’t have the heart to mend I don’t wanna finish what we started I think you could be an honest man But I’m a woman who’s just too guarded We know it’s a big mistake Nothing like the ones we’ll make Nothing left to do, but let it lie But let’s not wait till water’s running dry Don’t wait up for me I’m not coming home I’m not tired Gonna drive all night Don’t wait up for me I’m not answering my phone I’m headed north on the 5 till it’s light Don’t wait for me, don’t wait for me Might not hear from me for a while ‘Cause I don’t have the heart to mend We can never finish what we started You couldn’t be an honest man So how could I be the woman you wanted? It took us so long to find Water’s almost there in my eyes Nothing left to do but cut the line Let’s not wait till water’s running dry
