sometime other than now

Lyrics

maybe your mama didn't treat you right, maybe her intentions weren't even very good, maybe my daddy lay awake at night, imagining himself in some other neighborhood, left to our own devices, like maybe they were too, out on the open road, and wonderin' what to do, you ask how we got here baby don't ask how, that was sometime other than now, it takes what it takes, that's what they told us girl, we've done a lot of dumb things, we'll probably do some more, on two different paths, runnin' 'round in different worlds, we finally found each other, who we were lookin' for, now i see my own reflection, when i give my love to you, and it's shot back like an arrow, so straight and true, i'm not leavin' baby, the future's comin' right here and now, and maybe tomorrow we can't take it, i'm not grievin' baby anymore, the past is gone, and we can't fake it, so baby let's make it, with this love of ours somehow, a little bit of fear, you know it goes a long way, it's followed us around since we were little kids, with just a little faith, well maybe baby someday, we will find the strength, the strength to forgive, it don't come all of a sudden, but when it comes at last, you could blink your eyes and miss it, it happens so fast,
