Jamie Winchester Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That shines around your face
The dephts of your soul in a hundred faces that I can watch for days
Deep in your eyes are a thousand places, the stories they could tell
When everyting's gone to the dogs, can't face it, you bring me back from
hell
Well you drag me back from hell
Well I know it's the time of my wasted life
Spun out of control in space and time
You'll be there when I need you to throw a line
Just your hands in mine
There's times when we fight and we hurt each other a million differend ways
But there in the arms of another lover, I lie awake for days
The choices are endless but still they send us along the road again
But every turn we take only seems to make us the very best of friends
Well you know you're my best friend
Well I know it's the time of my wasted life
Spun out of control in space and time
You'll be there when I need you to throw a line
Just your hands in mine
