Playing Catch With .22 (Bluegrass Version)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I've been thinking back to when we used to share a drink on late night walks When you'd pretend your winter breath was cigarette smoke in your lungs I'd fight the urge to give you all the worst advice about the ones you liked (You called it chemistry, I called it earning bragging rights) Knowing damn well if I told you how I felt, I'd crack the ice Roll the dice [Chorus] You're just a second away from being in love or alone What you don't know Is that each second you waste is a breath you don't take It's a moment you wasted You're just a second away from building a life or a home What you don't know Is that each second you waste is a breath you don't take It's a moment you wasted [Verse 2] I've been thinking back to that night on your front step When I held you as you wept We sat awhile in silence, but I was screaming in my head How to tell you, or if I even could When the moment came So I always try to live vicariously through my friends (You call it chemistry, I call it perfect timing instead) Watching all them fall in love, and wondering if I will again [Chorus] You're just a second away from being in love or alone What you don't know Is that each second you waste is a breath you don't take It's a moment you wasted You're just a second away from building a life or a home What you don't know Is that each second you waste is a breath you don't take It's a moment you wasted Just a second away from being in love or alone Every second you waste is a breath you don't take It's a moment you wasted Just a second away from building a life or a home Every second you waste is a breath you don't take It's a moment you wasted [Outro] You're just a second away from being in love or alone And every second you waste is a breath that you don't take
