Lifetimes

Sheryl Crow · Wildflower [2005]

Take off your halo, take off your golden crown

The spotlight's off, the shades are down

Where are your friends now, they're ghosts in a windowpane

Sometimes it's hard to stay the same



We can live lifetimes in a single day

No matter what you do, I love you anyway

You say if you're lost inside; well, I get lonely, too

Even in the worst of times, I give my best to you



I dreamed I was swimming, fighting the undertow

Drifting in circles, no place to go

And when I woke up, I was wringing wet

So much stronger than before



We can live lifetimes in a single day

No matter what you do, I love you anyway

You say if you're lost inside; well, I get lonely, too

Even in the worst of times, I give my best to you



The words escape

The silence made

The looks betray

I'm not afraid



We can live lifetimes in a single day

No matter what you do, I love you anyway

You say if you're lost inside; well, I get lonely, too

Even in the worst of times, I give my best to you

Even in the worst of times, I give my best to you
