The Shadowboxers - Highway Roses

I don't want to wait another minute
For the bottom to fall out
I'm tired of the way
I'm taking things for granted with you

Love should feel like sweat in the summer
On a dark grey t-shirt
It's all about the work
That I have been pretending to do

This could go on and on and on
We both know it's wrong
But here I am, on aisle 2
Hoping I can find somebody's words for you

Baby, this can't be love
If we're always giving up
I'm tired of showing up with highway roses
Baby, this can't be love
That's a feeling we've been dreaming of
I'm tired of showing up with highway roses

I can't shake the feeling like
You've always just remembered to love me
Like I am just the gum
You're grabbing in the checkout line (Aw yeah, aw yeah)
So I don't wanna take another minute
For what this won't be
Cause if it's gonna end
We might as well start saying goodbye

Time comes in gets comfortable
Years go by before you know
Quick to say apologies
I accept too easily
Call to say you're running late
Throw some take out on the plate
I don't even try to wait
For you

I wanna know
If this road we're on
Will keep us hanging on
Til we break through
And I wanna know
If this road we're on
Will keep us hanging on
Til we break through
