Caught 04:29
So the rail could fall — could fail — Only has to bring me across. And I been caught with my head down, thinking a thought. Only had to keep us apart. Up to the deadline All of your fears happen all the time Hope in the headlights Forgotten when I go, forgiven on your own One of yours, one of mine You and me in a headline When the heat comes down And I know you’re there, and I crumble and stare. Mississauga winter, white hair. Keeping it fair; keeping it all up; keeping it deep in the air. It's all I ever needed: keys and a rocking chair. Up to the deadline All of your fears happen all the time Hope in the headlights Forgotten when I go, forgiven on your own One of yours, one of mine You and me in a headline Was one of mine, it was one of yours Leaving here again oh Lord When the heat comes down When the heat comes down One of yours, one of mine You and me in a headline Was one of mine, it was one of yours Leaving here again oh Lord When the heat comes down When the heat comes down

Rebecca – or should it be Becky? I never knew what to do with your name You're not a fan of the abbreviation, I know Sometimes I used it anyway But I wasn't calling to say so, didn't call you to apologize I was calling a different Rebecca – my phone does this sometimes Shouldn'ta made that call, Shouldn't've even been in the car at all, yeah, Slow to resist, now I'm taking a hit of annihilation And if I hadn'ta set you free, Then you'd'a probably been in here in the car with me, yeah Funny cause I never thought I could die of a conversation With the wrong Rebecca, so this is a surprise Seven in the morning and the sun is in my eyes And if you see me let me know what happens when I go, I'm curious to let the night decide So Becky – I mean, Rebecca – I started out thinking How you and I were never in love And even when we tried out a kiss, meh, it wasn't on the up-and-up How I could never make a decision So I started working in the coffee shop They wouldn't even let me into the kitchen But I promise to never stop And I never stopped And I shouldn'ta made that call, Shouldn't've even been in the car at all, yeah, Slow to resist, now I'm taking a hit of annihilation And if I hadn'ta set you free, Then you'd'a probably been in here in the car with me, yeah Funny cause I never thought I could die of a conversation With the wrong Rebecca, so this is a surprise Seven in the morning and the sun is in my eyes And if you see me let me know what happens when I go, I'm curious to let the night decide Becky, Becca, Bebe, my lips are sticking on the sound Looking up to see that 18-wheeler bearing down There's no time to tell you all that's on my mind There's no time to tell you anything but Hi So I guess I wish I'd been a better person, or whatever Shoulda been kind to the poor Definitely shouldn't have pretended that I wasn't at home When the Green Party came to my door Had an idea for a great invention, probably woulda changed the world But here I am in the oncoming lane On the phone with a Rebecca who will never be my girl And I shouldn'ta made that call, No, shouldn't've even been in the car at all, yeah, Slow to resist, now I'm taking a hit of annihilation And if I hadn'ta set you free, Yeah you'd'a probably been in here in the car with me, yeah Funny cause I never thought I could die of a conversation With the wrong Rebecca, so this is a surprise Seven in the morning and the sun is in my eyes
