Save the Afternoon (radio edit version, itunes) 2011
Capo 1st fret standard tuning
There are lines that we set up
As you and I become us
When we start, there is less struggle when theyre crossed.
But on days already rough
The lines get close enough to touch
And the smallest movement sets all the alarms off
What takes so long to find can easily get lost
Well I cant figure out what to do
Is there still time left to save the afternoon?
Before we say something that isnt true
Is there still time left to save the afternoon?
Ive said things that I regret,
some after days, some after breakfast
And I know my pride can get the best of me.
But this is not some massive fire, destroying fields hour by hour
But it burns me up again when you leave angry
So before you go please listen to my plead.
Well I cant figure out what to do
Is there still time left to save the afternoon?
Before we say something that isnt true
Is there still time left to save the afternoon?
Save us from the silent treatments
Save us from the separate sleepin
Save us from the thought that this could be the end.
Hope in making the first move
Catch you thinking that same thing too
That you crack that smile then we can start again
Lets use tonight to make our amends
Well I canât figure out what to do
Is there still time left to save the afternoon?
Before we say something that isnt true
Is there still time left to save the afternoon?
