Paths

[Verse 1] If God really listens Like your mom says He does Then He better be saving you For our future kids and dogs [Pre-Chorus] I thought we'd be married Two pillars firm and proud But real love is a verb I get it now [Chorus] My youth is in your past You'll always have that And though it didn't last, I hope our paths Cross again [Verse 2] If time heals all It's a lousy doctor Or a half-baked thought 'Cause I still can't block you [Pre-Chorus] I came upon family And thought I was stifled Thought my freedom endangered I was just young and entitled [Chorus] And you taught me a lot Stretched and wrung and tossed I'm sorry we got lost I hope our paths cross again [Bridge] We'll love others We'll drift apart But every time I sing a song You won't feel very far [Chorus] The future's ours to write The songs, the scars, the life I'll catch up with you some other time When our paths cross again [Outro] Cross again
