From the window to the doorway

This is the way we planned our escape

Five miles of road

Three hours of conversation

My feet and ears could only take so much

From Texas to Ohio is too long a walk

Even if it's with someone you love

Five miles in the walk

You already want to do them in

Through the heat and humidity

My mind keeps going back

To the first time I met you

How weeks after dating

I could never get a hold of you

"I don't know where she's at

You should try calling back tomorrow"

From the window to the threshold

This is the way we learn from our mistakes

You leave all your friends

For someone you think you love

Through the for the better and the worse

My mind keeps going back

To the first time I met you

How weeks after dating

I could never get a hold of you

"I don't know where she's at

You should try calling back tomorrow"
