Washed Away (Acoustic Version)

We live out here in the desert

Where time stands still in the face of our foolish pride

We trade our love for ambition

And tell each other we'll gonna get it all back in time

But time moves on like a river

Soon leaves us all behind

Like a summer rain, it all gets washed away

Round and round and round we go, where it stops, don't no one know

Find a love, you better let 'em know or you both get washed away

Round and round and round we go, where it stops, don't no one know

Find a love, you better hold on fast or you both get washed away

I watch the wind blow out there, maybe hear some distant laughter

Look outside the hotel window and my soul wanders off me

This is the town I met you in, and I won't soon forget that

Your proud beauty lingers on until the storm is lifted

Go find your fortune fast, it's cold outside but you'll make it

Don't trade your love for ambition, or you'll get washed away

Round and round and round we go, where it stops, don't no one know

Find a love, you better let 'em know or you both get washed away

Round and round and round we go, where it stops, don't no one know

Find a love, you better hold on fast or you both get washed away

An old cliché that you used to tell me

Some things might change, all things won't last

Do the best you can, it'll all work out

At the end of the storm, you get to love another day, yeah

Round and round and round we go, where it stops, don't no one know

Find a love, you better let 'em know or you both get washed away

Round and round and round we go, where it stops, don't no one know

Find a love, you better hold on fast or you both get washed away

The time we spend as we pass this way

We might not ever be here again

Hold on tight, do what you might

And then we got tomorrow, yeah
