How Can I

We’ve been riding up mountains
Turning corners in our lives
We would have taken any buses
Headed for Telluride
We stopped in the desert
In the middle of the night
Looked to the stars on the old roadside
You look at me and say
Look at the moon
Take it in
It'll be gone soon

I'm taking more risks now
I'm stepping out of line
I put up my fists now
Until I get what's mine
Should have been you
Could have been anyone
Now I'vve missed my chance to run
I would have gone anywhere with you
I would have gone if you'd asked me to
How can I live without it?
How can I live?

I wrote you a letter
Posted out central L.A
Now if you ever come through here
Won't you come take me away?

Could have been you and should have been anyone
Now I've missed my chance to run
And I would have gone anywhere with you
I would have gone if you'd asked me to
How can I live without you?
How can I live?

I'm going back east where I belong
Where I belong
How can I live without you?
How can I live?
