All morning, NG has been playing this Eric Clapton song, over and over again, and he keeps looking at me every time we need to stop the car. I don't want to aSSume, but the hints are pretty heavy. Why can't he just say in his own words what's on his mind? Why does it have to be the easy option? I hate it that on my way to work, I have to choke back tears

(I) Get Lost
by Eric Clapton

I'm sorry.
Why should I say I'm sorry?
If I hurt you,
You know you've hurt me too.

But you get lost inside your tears,
And there is nothing I can do,
'Cause I get lost inside my fear
That I am nothing without you.

You're angry.
Why shouldn't you be angry?
With what we've been through,
Well I get angry too.

'Cause I am nothing without you.

Why should we have taken so long
To be looking inside of our mind?
Everything we tried went wrong.
Are we worried 'bout what we might find?

I'm sorry,
But can I say I'm sorry?
If I hurt you,
You know it hurts me too.

And you get lost inside your tears,
And there is nothing we can do,
'Cause I get lost inside my fear
That I am nothing without you.
