Next thing I knew we were in deep
Hold on to me, cause babe I'm bout to leave
She said it never felt so right
As the time went by
and I was off in the night
She said I don't cry, tonight I cried twice
The thought of you not by my side
And I find you the on the emotional type
Hold on to me, we can hold on for life
Tell me how you feel when I say this,
Our destination is place-less
I never understood what it meant when
I said the three words that some people dread
That's about as real as it gets
I never hold back with my love and intent
Finally figured out what it meant
Now there's a spark in my heart times ten

Everyday 
Eight days a week was the song that I'd play
Eight times for me and eight times for the sake
Eight times for love and eight times for the way
That I can remember those days
You and every minute wasn't all so strange 
See you in the spring when the patience pays
I'm [bad word]  but hustlin' and lovin' it, always.

Yeah yeah

I wrote to her eighty-five times
Sometimes for her, but sometimes for my 
simple collection of lies
Sometimes to find the way up in a rhyme
I woke up one morning to find
it was her first name on a billboard sign
I smiled and said [bad word] what a trip
I was just yesterday I had a kiss for her lips
Usually I don't make much of this
sign's a sign it doesn't change it a bit
I choose to stay calm in my sleep
Seeing the prize on April nineteenth
That was then, I was down to a week
Longest seven days of my life so to speak
I sip up my tea so sweet 
And my head thirsts the girl I've been dying to see

So, everyday 
Eight days a week was the song that I'd play
Eight times for me and eight times for the sake
Eight times for love and eight times for the way
That I can remember those days
You and every minute wasn't all so strange 
See you in the spring when the patience pays
I'm [bad word]  but hustlin' and lovin' it, always.
