Toss It All

I took this job 'cause it was my dream

And I work hard for it

You congratulated me for not settling for a lesser life

And you followed dreams of your own and I love you

For it

But now success is bittersweet, it swept you up, and

Took you far away

Now we simply take it day by day

But days without you go slow

And someday in a week or nine

Our paths will cross and for a time

You'll hold me like you'll never let me go

By day it's clear my mission's here

Three thousand miles feels like a few

At night alone I hold the phone

I'd toss it all to be with you

My friends laugh when we're out sometimes

A girl gets aggressive

She'll rub my leg I'll hit the street

She can't compete 'cause no one can touch you

Now I'm spoiled by all the things you do

I'm ruined and it shows

And someday...

In my mind, there will be a time when we can stay

Together like I know we're meant to

It's all right

I keep telling myself if I wait then someday we'll be

Close if I hold on

The thought of us together makes me strong

I'm stronger than you know
