About the song
Written for the first guy I ever dated. It was a brief but traumatic experience for me.
Lyrics
We met on a one-lane highway
The midnight fog our only friend
Two strangers with too much in common
So many things I shouldn’t have said...

Bruised by the stones of silence
Drowned in this river of fear.
We walk through the shadowed valleys
A fog in our head as twighlight draws near

If you want me to, I will run to you...

We pass through the mountains ahead.
Past fields and flowers of friends.
You reach a fork in your life,
I’d dance in your eyes but I’m already forgotten...

If you want me to then I will run to you...

How can you let me fall in love
As you turn your back and walk away?
The howling wind has lost its voice
And the flowers call your name...

We return to the fields and flowers,
A waning moon lights your way
Stone tears and words drop like nightfall...
I give the mountain your grave.
(One last time I stay)

I would have run to you, if you wanted me to...
