Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I am thinkin' it's a sign
That the freckles in our eyes are mirror images
And when we kiss, they're perfectly aligned
And I have to speculate
That God himself did make us into correspondin'
Shapes like puzzle pieces from the clay
[Verse 2]
And true, it may seem like a stretch
But it's thoughts like this that catch my troubled
Head when you're away, when I am missin' you to death
When you are out there on the road
For several weeks of shows and when you scan the radio
I hope this song will guide ya home
[Chorus]
They will see us wavin' from such great heights
Come down now, they'll say
But everything looks perfect from far away
Come down now, but we'll stay
[Verse 3]
I tried my best to leave
This all on your machine, but the persistent beat
It sounded thin upon listenin'
And that frankly will not fly
You will hear the shrillest highs and lowest lows
With the windows down, and this is guidin' ya home
[Chorus]
They will see us wavin' from such great heights
Come down now, they'll say
But everything looks perfect from far away
Come down now, but we'll stay
