Sometimes, you look the same Just like you did before the accident When you're staring into space It's hard to believe you don't remember it Woke up in the ambulance You pieced it all together on the drive I know you don't remember calling me But I told you, even then you looked so pretty In a hospital bed I remember you said you were scared And so was I In a stand-still on The Five, thought it was unusually early traffic Usually, I don't panic, I just wanted to be on time When I saw the ambulances on the shoulder, I didn't even think of pulling over I pieced it all together late that night And I know you don't remember calling me But I told you, even then you looked so pretty In a hospital bed I remember you said you were scared And so was I What if it happened to you on a different day? On a bridge, where there wasn't a rail in the way? Or a neighborhood street where the little kids play? Or the Angeles Crest in the snow or the rain? What if you weren't alone? There were kids in the car What if you were remote? No one knows where you are If you changed anything, would you not have survived? You're alive, you're alive, you're alive And I know you don't remember calling me But I told you, even then you looked so pretty In your hospital bed I remember you said you were scared And so am I
I found a guy, told me I was a star He held the door held my hand in the dark And he's perfect on paper but he's lying to my face Does he think that I'm the kinda girl who needs to be saved? And there's one more boy, he's from my past We fell in love but it didn't last 'Cause the second I figure it out he pushes me away And I won't fight for love if you won't meet me halfway And I say that I'm through but this song's still for you All I want is love that lasts Is all I want too much to ask? Is it something wrong with me? All I want is a good guy Are my expectations far too high? Try my best but what can I say All I have is myself at the end of the day But shouldn't that be enough for me? Ooh ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh And I miss the days When I was young and naive I thought the perfect guy would come and find me Now happy ever after it don't come so easily All I want is love that lasts Is all I want too much to ask? Is it something wrong with me? Oh All I want is a good guy Are my expectations far too high? Try my best but what can I say All I have is myself at the end of the day And all I want is for that to be okay
