Rest Stop - Matchbox Twenty

Just three miles from the rest stop

And she slams on the breaks

She said I tried to be but Im not

And could you please collect your things

I don’t wanna be cold

I don’t wanna be cruel

But I gotta find more

Than what’s happening with you

If you’d — open up the door

She said — while you were sleeping

I was listening to the radio

And wondering what you’re dreaming when

It came to mind that I didn’t care

So I thought — hell if it’s over

I had better end it quick

Or I could lose my nerve

Are you listening — can you hear me Have you forgotten

Just three miles from the rest stop

And my mouths too dry to rage

The light was shining from the radio

I could barely see her face

But she knew all the words that I never had said

She knew the crumpled-up promise of this

Broken down man — and as I opened up the door

She said — while you were sleeping

I was listening to the radio

And wondering what you’re dreaming when

It came to mind that I didn’t care

So I thought — hell if it’s over

I had better end it quick

Or I could lose my nerve

Are you listening — can you hear me Have you forgotten

She said — while you were sleeping

I was listening to the radio

And wondering what you’re dreaming when

It came to mind that I didn’t care

So I thought — hell if it’s over

I had better end it quick

Or I could lose my nerve

Are you listening — can you hear me While you were sleeping

I was listening to the radio

And wondering what you’re dreaming when

It came to mind that I didn’t care

So I thought — hell if it’s over

I had better end it quick

Or I could lose all my nerve

Are you listening — can you hear me
