Album: My Dear Machine (2008)

Sooner Than Later

I guess we did what we thought we had to
But what we did wasn't right
Prouder than we should've been
Too many times we walked away

I always knew there'd be questions
And I know what you tried to do
You were something special
There was nothing simple about you

They say what's right isn't wrong
I think that I'll make a wager
You carried along until you felt out of danger
I wrote you this song
So won't you do me a favor:
When it's my turn to fall,
You'll catch me sooner than later

I'm missing those times tonight
Dark was dark and light was light
No one knew you better
Nobody tried harder

They say what's right isn't wrong
I think that I'll make a wager
You carried along until you felt out of danger
I wrote you this song
So won't you do me a favor:
When it's my turn to fall,
You'll catch me sooner than later

I saw you standing by the road yesterday
I saw your shadow fall across my way

They say what's right isn't wrong
I think that I'll make a wager
You carried along until you felt out of danger
I wrote you this song
So won't you do me a favor...

I think that I'll make a wager
You carried along until you felt out of danger
I wrote you this song
So won't you do me a favor:
When it's my turn to fall,
You'll catch me sooner than later
