Circumstances

I don’t have a job
Not because I don’t need one
I don’t have a car
So I’ll beg you for a ride
Just take me back
Back on down to where you want me
Cause I know
You and I can
Bring it right round today
I said circumstances notwithstanding
I’ll be the way you always planned it
Just be sure to have a backup plan in place
I don’t have a wife
Not because I don’t want one
There was love in my life
But now it’s all gone away
Just take me back
Back on down to California
Cause I know
You and I can
Bring it right round today
I said circumstances notwithstanding
I’ll be the way you always planned it
Love me like you loved me yesterday
You come on closer when we talk
That’s the way you know it’s always been
Lately when we’ve done the walk
It just feels like clocking in
It suprises me sometimes
You can keep the distance from your face
I try to keep it off of myself
But it just seems like a waste
Cause you know where I smile
When I just hold my lips tight
I swear I won’t take you for granted
