Rest Stop

Matchbox Twenty · Mad Season [2000]

Just 3 miles from the rest stop

and she slams on the brakes

she said i tried to be, but i'm not

so could you please collect your things

But i dont want to be cold,

i dont want to be cruel

but i got to find more than whats happening with you

and if you'd open up the door



She said, While you were sleeping

i was listening to the radio and wondering what your dreaming

when it came to mind that i didnt care

and i thought hell if its over,

well i had better end it quick or i could lose my nerve'

are you listening? can you hear me?

have you forgotten?



Just 3 miles from the rest stop

and my mouths to dry to rage

the light was shining from the radio

i could barely see her face

but she knew all the words that i never had said

she knew the crumpled up promise of this broken down man

as i opened up the door, she said



While you were sleeping

i was listening to the radio and wondering what your dreaming

when it came to mind that i didnt care

and i thought, hell if its over,

then i had better end it quick or i could lose my nerve'

are you listening? can you hear me?

well i had better end it quick or i could lose all my nerve'
