Lyrics
When I met you I had plans
I didn’t know I could change
I got a sense you were something
That couldn’t be explained
And here I am trying to capture
Your essence in a verse
All I know is you can work on things
And some things they just work
You showed me all the magic
Flowing through your spine
I felt in from your fingertips
All the way to mine
And I wanted nothing more
Than to be with you on earth
All I know is you can work on things
And some things they just work
And I wonder if you chose me
Or if I stumbled into you
Was it etched into a tablet
Was it scribbled in baby blue
Is it supposed to feel like medicine
Or is it supposed to hurt
All I know is you can work on things
And some things they just work
I lie awake at night
The kids asleep between us
Weighing the distance between you and I
The Volvo and the Prius
Between the wealthy and the destitute
What we get and what we deserve
And I wonder if we work on things
That really need the work
And I wonder if you chose me
Or if I stumbled into you
Was it etched into a tablet
Was it scribbled in baby blue
Is it supposed to feel like medicine
Or is it supposed to hurt
All I know is you can work on things
And some things they just work
So we drive to Minneapolis
Every other year
I know you'd rather fly
But driving keeps me clear
As I retrace the connection
From my hometown to yours
