Every Other Night
I saw lights in the dark
reflecting on white
she said, now come on
you'll see it's all right
let's play in the snow
let's get outside some time
so her hand reaches mine
and I blindly follow
the next morning
sitting at the kitchen table
she's staring out again
likely thinking of a new place
- too far away for me then
I'm a lover of home
I don't have to go out
to feel that I'm here
to feel that I count
now don't be mad
because I'll follow you
forever and back
but don't expect me to
to just run away
at your every whim
every other day
only three hours later
we're still sitting there
I see your mind getting grayer
wanna be anywhere but here
I can't look any longer
so I do what is right
I set you free
to do as you might
now don't be mad
because I'll still follow you
forever and back
but don't expect me to
to just run away
at your every whim
at your every thought
every other day
