Is that restless spirit
still burning through your blood?
In your weakest moments
has that been good enough?

When youre alone at night,
Do you cry yourself to sleep?
When no ones watching
do you pretend thats all you need? (Chorus:)
The blues and the heartbreak can take a toll on a man,
But still, here I am.
Dont let the crack in between us leave you afraid of
what hasnt happened yet.
So live without holding back,
like I wish I had.

You gave me something to dwell on
while dragging memories down the hall;
Now that its all said and done
are you all right with what it cost?

We came so far, then there you are,
demanding that we make a change;
Now were finding peace on separate paths
while goodbye drips down my face. (Repeat Chorus)

Listening back to this song, I found I was thinking about the real friends who stick through the thick and thin and stay true no matter the hard times.

Your voice reminds me of a young Faith Hill. This is another beautiful song.

You know exactly how to capture sentiment.

Almost made me cry!

Great performance... it seems like a person only gets a few 'real' friends over the course of a lifetime.
