Toss It All

(album: Subliminable Messages - 2004)

I took this job cuz it was my dream and I work hard for it
You congratulated me for not settling for a lesser life
And you followed dreams of your own and I love you for it
But now success is bittersweet, it swept you up, and took you far away
Now we simply take it day by day
But days without you go slow

And someday in a week or nine
Our paths will cross and for a time
You'll hold me like you'll never let me go

By day it's clear my mission's here
Three thousand miles feels like a few
At night alone I hold the phone
I'd toss it all to be with you

My friends laugh when we're out sometimes
A girl gets aggressive
She'll rub my leg I'll hit the street
She can't compete cuz no one can touch you
Now I'm spoiled by all the things you do
I'm ruined and it shows

And someday in a week or nine
Our paths will cross and for a time
You'll hold me like you'll never let me go

By day it's clear my mission's here
Three thousand miles feels like a few
At night alone I hold the phone
I'd toss it all to be with you

In my mind
There will be a time when we can stay
Together like I know we're meant to
It's all right
I keep telling myself if I wait
Then someday we'll be close if I hold on

The thought of us together makes me strong
I'm stronger than you know

And someday in a week or nine
Our paths will cross and for a time
You'll hold me like you'll never let me go

By day it's clear my mission's here
Three thousand miles feels like a few
At night alone I hold the phone
I'd toss it all to be with you
I'd toss it all to be with you
