I was way out on some godforsaken beach
Tainted water from a dead sea washing up on the shore
I never meant to stay out so long
But someone turned the lights out back home
I lost my way back to any place I had known
I’ve always been blessed with beautiful friends
Who am I to complain?
But everyone’s got their own lives
And at the end of the night it was always me and the strays going out in the rain
And then I found you
And the stars came to life
At the edge of a knife
After all of the strife
And you were by me just inches away
And that’s sorta where you been ever since that day
When I found you
Closing down bars
Sleeping in cars
Wintry branches scratching at the windows
Rictus smiles everywhere
Alone on the back streets
Living off crumbs
Taking every hit just to see if I’d grow numb
I couldn’t have remembered if I tried
The last time someone really looked into my eyes
I’d gotten so I didn’t mind going it alone
At the end of it I expected no one would really notice if I’d come or gone
And then I found you
And the sun reappeared
After all of these years
After so many tears
And I was down on my knees howling up at the sky
Water from the seas flowing through my eyes
Singing I found you
I found you
Honey, I found you
I found you
And the stars came to life
And you gave me the knife
That’s enough with the fears
Honey, don’t disappear
Now that I found you
I found you
I found you
My sweet love
I really wanna know you, my love
I really wanna go with you
I really wanna see you
I really wanna be with you
It takes so long, I know
I know
We both know
Tell me how long before the last one
Tell me how long before the right one
Tell me how long before the last one
Tell me how long before the right one
My love, my sweet love
I really wanna
I really want to
