You can take me away from my sorrow   but you can't take away my scars   I stand in the middle of the highway   playing chicken with the cars   It's not that I'm destructive I   just want to feel your pain      Chorus:   If there was any way I could have known   I would trip and fall away from you   If there was anything I could have done   to stay in love with you - with you         I wish I could say to you what you are to me   but I know it would make you sad   You are too good to be my lover   but you've been the greatest dad   I ever had   You made my life so lovely I   just had to mess it up      If there was any way I could have known   I would always need to be alone   If there was anything I could have done   to stay in love with you   with you         If I knew I'd do it twice just to make sure that   I did it right      If there was any way I could have known   I would always need to be alone   If there was anything I could have done   to stay in love with you   with you
