I left you a note on the table
|
I hope it finds you well
|
I hope you don't hurt like you did
|
'Cos I'd just blame myself
|
|
And I know it's for me
|
That I'm out on these streets
|
Bleeding nightly for these people I meet
|
But it's you who I long for when I cannot sleep
|
It's enough, it could drive me to drink
|
|
And I, I am almost nowhere
|
And I'm getting there fast
|
And you, you're the hope in my cold stare
|
You're the drink in my hand
|
|
And I picked up your broken tears
|
You said you weren't busy enough
|
I still don't know why you need me in my broken down love
|
With each second that ticks your voice rings in my ears
|
And the memories flood back from all of our years
|
And I tell you "It's ok, there's nothing to fear"
|
And I secretly hope I am right
|
|
And I, I am almost nowhere
|
And I'm getting there fast
|
And you, you're the hope in my cold stare
|
You're the drink in my hand
|
|
You're the drink in my hand
|
|
I left you last week and you told me "Go on and follow your dreams"
|
I think about that lately
|
Still I don't know what it means
|
'Cos you're what I dream of when I wake alone
|
As I drift away as we talk on the phone
|
You're all I want and it's all that I know
|
And I still just can't wait to get home
|
|
And I, I am almost nowhere
|
And I'm getting there fast
|
And you, you're the hope in my cold stare
|
You're the drink in my hand
|
