Mary Chapin Carpenter - All The Sad Songs lyrics

Theres a can in the street Kicked to the curb And the last bridge I crossed suddenly burned Daylights all gone And the night just wont end And Im thinking of leaving again Could you love me like home, like hills that slumber? Could you love me like dreams, like stars without number? Could you love me like morning mist off of a road? Could you love me like the shadows of evening? In a car going fast Like it needs to be gone Ive got the window rolled down, radio on A couple of hours And miles ago I turned into someone I didnt know Could you love me like stones, like wonder, like rain? Could you love me like ghosts, like echoes, and then Could you love me like hope, loves forgiveness, and grace? Could you love me enough not to lose me? All the sad songs That I ever heard I never believed a single word That was before When I was with you And now I know every sad word is true Could you love me like traces and places in time? Could you love me like bells, like roses that climb? Could you love me like breath catching hard on your name? Could you love me enough to believe in In the cool, quiet shadows of evening And all that we hear is our breathing
