Lyrics

It's like you said, In over my head She writes these words That fall from her hands like, fledgling birds She reels me in anyway We don't talk much anymore Just in line at the grocery store Between the bread aisle and the fruit Exchanging looks that remind me of you She pulls her hair back in the car Says "we coulda walked it wasn't that far" It's like you said In over my head Winter's closing in And I am bathed in my sins We like it better that way We take a train in April snow Her eyes have lost that certain glow Under jackets and flannel shirts I hear her heartbeat start to blur About the guy she met last week At the bar she's always sweet It's like you said In over my head The ice in my heart Grows stronger as I fall apart It's not so cold anymore But we still talk now and again She says that we'll always be friends And I have moved to Illinois But I still can hear her voice Spring returns life to the trees But there's still no life in me It's like you said In over my head
