I'm just a few states up the road
South of Yellowstone, where it gets
A little colder
Living out on my own
Missing more than home
Just wishing I could hold her
I know I said I was fine
But baby I was lying
I could use a call from you right now
Saying, "I'm just checking in, wondering how you've been, and what you're doing."
I could use a call from you right now, right now
Was it just in my head
Thinking you'd come back
When we got a little older
Now I'm lying awake
Counting up the mistakes
And things I should've told her
I know I said I was fine
But baby I was lying
I could use a call from you right now
Saying, "I'm just checking in, wondering how you've been, and what you're doing."
I could use a call from you right now, right now
And just like that
I'm talking to you again
You said it's been too long
I said it's been two years
You tell me you've been good
I say the same right here
What happened to our plans
The ones you wrote in the sand
When you left me here
I could use a call from you right now
Saying, "I'm just checking in, wondering how you've been, and what you're doing."
I could use a call from you right now, right now
