Dear Alice Lyrics

I remember the words that you said when we left for Alaska
Let"s pack our bags in the truck with our love and go drive for a while
I can"t understand all the mysteries in this old Bible
But the closer we get, well, the harder we hurt when we fall
I can"t win them all
But I still want you
and I"m hoping deep down that you want me too
Are we worth it?
Are we worth what I put you through?
I can"t earn it
I can"t earn it, you"ve got to choose
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
And I burn for you
My brother he called and said I should get back home
Out in East Tennessee where it"s prettiest there in the fall
They say that true love tells the truth even if it"s a burden
Well, I guess I"m still learning
Cause most of the time I just talk
and fill up these walls with half-hearted tunes

I"m a good man with bones that bruise
I"m not perfect
But I"m learning to tell the truth
Show me some mercy
Cause I"m hurtin, for hurtin you
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh
All that I wanted was never enough
All that I needed was more of your love
Please come home to me
Please come home to me
Please come home to me
