On With You

John Hiatt · Same Old Man [2008]

Twenty years and we're still on the beat

Stretchin' out and goin' for it

I don't know if these ends will ever meet

Thing with love is you can't store it



Even when I was dead inside

You saw somethin' to remind you

Of the man I was tryin' to hide

The man who needed just to find you



I just wanna go on with you

All the joy and pain and beauty too

Somethin' in your eyes so rare and true

I just wanna go on with you my baby



That's when you knew I couldn't trust anyone

That's when you knew I couldn't trust myself

You said, "What good is trust without a smokin' gun?

If you can't risk betrayal it just sits on a shelf"



That's when I knew I was in love with you

That's when the walls started comin' down

That's when I reached out of the darkest blue

And you were there to bring me back around



I just wanna go on with you

All the joy and pain and beauty too

Somethin' in your eyes so rare and true

I just wanna go on with you baby



I just wanna go on with you

I just, I just wanna, I just wanna go

I just wanna go, I just wanna go on with you

That I, that I just wanna, I just wanna go

I just wanna go, I just wanna go on with you baby



It's like livin' in a dream

Or wakin' up in the middle of a scream

And realizin' that you're not alone

Or anyway the boogie man went home



I just wanna go on with you

All the joy and pain and beauty too

Somethin' in your eyes so rare and true

I just wanna go on with you baby



I just wanna go on

I just wanna go on with you

I just wanna go on

I just wanna, I just wanna baby
