Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Ten minutes to downtown

Is ten minutes too far?

When my friends all say I'm crazy

Maybe I'm being selfish

Maybe I'm being selfish

Maybe I'm just scared

Maybe I'm just scared

Don't be gone when I get home

I need you there

[Chorus]

If I had to explain it

I wouldn't know where to start

It's like you're falling in love

While I just fall apart

[Verse 2]

Ten minutes to downtown

Is ten minutes too far?

When my heart is saying you're crazy

Maybe things are getting better

Maybe things are getting better

Maybe things aren't so bad

Maybe things aren't so bad

Don't be gone when I get home

You're all I have

[Chorus]

If I had to explain it

I wouldn't know where to start

It's like you're falling in love

While I just fall apart

[Refrain]

Pockets empty

How can you tell me that everything will work out?

A pointless fight, when you're always right

And everything will work out

It works out

[Bridge]

Sometimes, I miss you more

Whenever I'm at home

I've been home all summer

Now I'm leaving you alone

[Refrain]

Pockets empty

How can you tell me that everything will work out?

A pointless fight, when you're always right

And everything will work out

[Outro]

Everything will work out

Everything will work out
