13 Days - Umphrey's McGee

The moment you leave

You’ll be asking for more

But I know what it is for

Still for a time I could act surprised

As soon as it seems

You will be where you were last

But with no one to laugh at

So I wouldn’t try for a second time

When you’re alone

There will be no one to say

Whether or not it’s okay

Comfort can come in so many forms

Waiting to be shown

Every now and again

That you’re willing to bet

And where should you care if your soul is torn?

It didn’t have to be that way

You’re just in time for somebody else’s holiday

It didn’t have to be that way

You’re just in time for somebody else’s holiday

It’s more like a friend

Who you know from a dream

That you never would meet

So all of your thoughts would be wasted on her

The climb and descend

Where you wanted to rest

If you’re willing to guess

But that’s not a promise I should offer

The risk that you take

Everyday you’re alive

Is enough to retire

But that’s not a reason to be modest

Ways of mistake

If you humor your pride

And you’re willing to lie

At least to yourself you were being honest

It didn’t have to be that way

You’re just in time for somebody else’s holiday

It didn’t have to be that way

You’re just in time for somebody else’s holiday
