Redemption's Only A Question Away

.

.

(Verse 1)

And now we're only shadows

Washing away in the sand

And there's a cool breeze blowing

Through these empty hands

.

But now you say you're feeling down

For riding the wind where it goes

There's guilt on this somber air and

You're not the only one that knows

.

(Chorus)

Hey, thanks for that summer

A time I'll never forget

I'm still picking up the pieces

And I haven't found them all just yet

.

You said feelings swear nothing

It's only the words that lie

With one last chance for redemption

tell me who's got your heart tonight?

.

(Verse 2)

I'm still sitting on the bench

Beside the words you left me with

I think it's safe to say that I'll

Be lucky for my next breath

.

After your shotgun blast to my chest

What a wonderful surprise you left

Me dying alive on the inside

And a scar bigger than your regret

.

(Chorus)

Hey, thanks for that summer

A time I'll never forget

I'm still picking up the pieces

And I haven't found them all just yet

.

You said feelings swear nothing

It's only the words that lie

With one last chance for redemption

tell me who's got your heart tonight?

.

(Bridge)

So what did he have to say,

While you were lying with me?

Did you tell him the truth,

While you were lying to me?

.

(Repeat Chorus)

Hey, thanks for that summer

A time I'll never forget

I'm still picking up the pieces

And I haven't found them all just yet

.

You said feelings swear nothing

It's only the words that lie

With one last chance for redemption

tell me who's got your heart tonight?

.

Who's got your heart tonight?

Who's got your heart tonight?

Who's got your heart tonight?

.

Who's got your heart too?
