Endless Love

A calf caught with his head n a fence

I saw it once and I’ve felt it since

The field ‘round glowed yellow-grey and the wind cried

A cat called, the cow died

chorus

Oh was he trying, Lord, not trying hard enough?

Had he reached the end of what I thought was an endless love?

Was he trying, Lord, not trying hard enough?

Did he reach the end of what I thought was an endless love?

It’s 3 in the morning and I’m going home

The only thing I need to find peace is to be alone

But I reach for coffee and I reach for the phone

And to extend my gaze to tomorrow is to curse my bones

I spent four years lying to myself

how I could take a bride and put her on a shelf

And I never thought I’d be writing songs

About how I hurt the girl and took too long

chorus, but about me

I wish to make amends - I want not to run

Don’t want to chase ghosts like forgiveness and fun

Though I’m a young man, I’ve made a mess of my life

But you can see the change - you know I’m gonna try

chorus about me, but more reflective :)
