Lyrics
I picked up on it first thing
You weren't like the ones I'd known
Mighta been from the same place
But coming from somewhere all your own
A few hours on a wooden bench
That's all it took to do me in
Knew then had to make it quick
Before I made us fall into sin
Said I don't know where we're going
But I know I want you to go with me
Don't care much about the destination
As long as you're there that's where I wanna be
The talking took a different tone
And started to make you cry
What if there's no way for us to know
What happens when we die
The blur from those tears faded
And you saw it for yourself
Hard truths all turned to maybes
And more than a savior we needed help
Said I don't know where we're going
But I know I want you to go with me
Don't care much about the destination
As long as you're there that's where I wanna be
A move west to the Devil's town
Losing old and making new friends
Finally put our crosses down
And watched those two boys start to turn to men
So much we'd been warned about
Ended up being pretty good
I keep waiting for the bottom to drop out
Like we said it would
Still don't know where we're going
But I know I want you to go with me
Caring less and less about the destination
As long as you're there that's where I wanna be
I'd like to go back to the old us
Take your hand and say it's all gonna be okay
We could only do what they told us
Without that who knows who we'd be with today
I don't know where we're going
But I know I want you to go with me
Don't care much about the destination
As long as you're there that's where I wanna be
As long as you're there that's where I'm gonna be
