Tenderfoot

Save The Year

Tenderfoot


We?ve had our share of awkward truths 
Over time, mostly whispered under records 
Played out in some dim lit bar, close to town 
And close to where we both were working 
Pretty much the same as now save the year 
The route to work and a different name badge 
And that?s just where the problem lies 
You?re brought to tears and can?t remember how 
You got here 

Wasn?t it you that said: 
Every mistake we make creates another chance 

If you ??? ten years on 
Nothing?s changed, but you aren?t you, your heart?s getting harder 
You built a house of credit cards to get in pay?? 
Covers just your debts and your drinking 
And disappointments cumulate, and settle in 
To take the place of love and laughter 
But can?t get in the way of work 
Oh god forbid 
And don?t, because I know what you?re thinking 

Wasn?t it you that said: 
Every mistake we make creates another chance 

Don?t believe in much these days 
But tell me where and tell me when 
And I?ll go with you
