[Verse:]
|
I¡¯ve been battered, I¡¯ve been bruised
|
And though I know it¡¯s no excuse
|
For you I know I¡¯m right
|
And in another place, in another time
|
I¡¯ll buy you flowers, I¡¯d build a home
|
Right now can¡¯t pay the bills, I cannot go
|
Can¡¯t give you anything you need
|
|
[Pre-Chorus:]
|
But maybe if you¡¯ll meet me further down the line
|
¡®Cause you¡¯re the right person at the wrong time
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
I wanna run into the light
|
And leave the dark behind
|
I wanna break the chains of life
|
With you right by my side
|
So oh
|
You gotta meet me down the line
|
So oh
|
You gotta meet me down the line
|
|
[Verse:]
|
I¡¯m easily dazed, I¡¯m so confused
|
It¡¯s hurting me and I¡¯m hurting you
|
Despite everything you do
|
|
[Pre-Chorus:]
|
You¡¯re gonna have to meet me further down the line
|
¡®Cause you¡¯re the right person at the wrong time
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
I wanna run into the light
|
And leave the dark behind
|
I wanna break the chains of life
|
With you right by my side
|
So oh
|
You gotta meet me down the line
|
So oh
|
You gotta meet me down the line
|
|
[Bridge:]
|
You¡¯ve been trying hard
|
To make me feel a little better
|
It¡¯s gonna take a while
|
To make me feel a little better
|
And I¡¯ll try, try, try, try a little harder uh yea
|
And I swear, swear, swear I¡¯m gonna lift you further
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
I wanna run into the light
|
And leave the dark behind
|
I wanna break the chains of life
|
With you right by my side
|
So oh
|
You gotta meet me down the line
|
So oh
|
You gotta meet me down the line
|
|
So oh
|
You gotta meet me down the line
|
|
I¡¯m easily dazed, I¡¯m so confused
|
It¡¯s hurting me and I¡¯m hurting you
|
