[Verse 1]
It may be our only way
We get to see this land
My dreams of somethin'
I watch turn into sand
All that I know
Romantic in your eyes
Not this way 'til you watch it
Turn from day to night

[Chorus]
Not this way until you step in my shoes

[Verse 2]
Beautiful hardships
That I know nothing of
Beautifully desperate and
Beautifully desperate and dry

[Chorus]
Not this way until you've felt in my shoes

[Bridge]
I don't want more love
Thought I would pretend to try

[Chorus]
Not this way until you step in my shoes
