Reasons for You to Love Me (Cars Can’t Escape)

Jeff Tweedy, Jay Bennett

When red is bled and petals blue
And in my sleepless head our love's been dead a week or two
Sometimes good times are stuck inside of you
And then they're gone

Oh baby, I just don't know why
But a lot of things have changed since we said goodbye
Well, there were reasons for you to love me but I gave you none

So I tap my glass and nod my chin
And wonder who you've been in rhythm with

Well, time's just time, cars can't escape
When clouds are gray and close not often, too far away
Well, blue has no value, power or hue
Or open skies

Relationless
Well, carelessness is what I miss and that's how I think of you
Sometimes good times were all we had to do

So I tap my glass and nod my chin
And wonder who you've been in rhythm with
Yeah I tap my glass

Well I've confused when infatuations made sense
Unremarkably attractive in the brows and towels
Hide inside, the bride is on fire
The deepest darkest hour of late desire

When your heart is frozen over
You're still not freezing to the touch
I'm not ready for all that much

So I tap my cap and scratch my chin
And wonder who you've been in rhythm with
So I tap my head and nod my chin
And I wonder, I wonder
Yeah wonder
Yeah wonder
