Every Time

(album: Who I Am - 2001)

I laid the blanket there on the shoreline
And saw the water shine with the moon
What kind of fool would fail to notice
The best thing shining was you

Oh, I laughed kinda nervous
I felt you move closer
And felt the world unwind
Once was a stranger, not quite a lover
But steadily crossing the line

Carry me far away
Don't hold back; I won't break
Leave the ghosts behind
All I know, wrong or right
Just the thought of this night
Will get me every time
Every time

Well, the voice in my head said
"What are you doing?"
I thought not listening to you
You see I'm taking a chance
I'm thinking about flying over the blue

And it's crazy to be this out of practice
And have it all come so naturally
Don't you love knocking logic right off its axis
And watch it float far out to sea

Carry me far away
Don't hold back; I won't break
Leave the ghosts behind
All I know, wrong or right
Just the thought of this night
Will get me every time
Every time
Every time
Every time
Every time

So now here I am reading my fortune
In the winding lines of your hand
Oh, and I see a lost unwanted orphan
Head right for the promised land

Carry me far away
I won't
I won't break
Oh
Carry me far away
Don't hold back; I won't break
Leave the ghosts behind
All I know, wrong or right
Just the thought of this night
Will get me every time
Will get me every time
Every time
