When I Win You Over - Miner

when I win you over

we’ll count the flowers growing in the yard

and if I call you sober

would you forgive for all the times I fell apart

The light has gotten dimmer

The longer I investigate the cause

said i’d always love you

you said youre movin out

your’e movin on

I kept holdin' onto you

like the widow to the grave

and I know theres nothin' left for me to say

but im stayin' awake

anyway

and when we get much older

we’ll remember why wer’e better than the rest

your head atop my shoulder

watching while the colors paint the west

you’ll be reading with me

while I can lift the leaves from off the grass

hard to say you left me

no easier to say that nothin' lasts

I kept holdin' onto you

like the blood against the blade

and I know theres nothin' left for me to say

but im stayin' awake

anyway

Woah oh oh oh oh

woah oh oh oh oh

say you know, and I will lead you home So when I win you over

we’ll count the flowers growing in the yard
