I made 
heavy what was light,
was looking for a fight
to give creedence to my crimes

I miss you
the boys and my friends
Sierra Nevada winds 
and ponderosa pines

Now debt
holds me like regret,
keeps me from moving yet
still I find dumb things to buy

Every time
you'd make a desperate pitch
you said in love we were rich,
we were laughing and crying

Sure being alone is fine
but I can't cross that bridge when I arrive
After the years that passed on by,
do I cross your mind?
Do I cross your mind?
Do I ever cross your mind?

Three
weeks of living clean
but what he really means
is not one knows he's using

I was
a skeleton crew
did the least I could do
to keep the vessel floating

Sure being alone is fine
but I can't cross that bridge when I arrive
After the years that passed on by,
do I cross your mind?
Do I cross your mind?
Do I ever cross your mind?

I
have this problem quirk
I always have to work
or else it's you I see

One day
my breath will join the wind
I'll cease to have been
'cept in what I build and bury

Sure being alone is fine
but I can't cross that bridge when I arrive
After the years that passed on by,
do I cross your mind?
Do I cross your mind?
Do I ever cross your mind?

Do I ever cross your mind?
