you see, i’ve fought this thought for way too long
i got scared of the things it said to me
i guess i’ve been on my way, protecting my heart to this day
walking every road that keeps me free
and that’s the way that i, taught myself to never try to tie
myself round lover’s chains
’cause one day if the chains let go, i won’t know which way to flow
if I’ve built a home in someone else
but tonight I’m weaker than I’m wise
need me like there’s no way it will ever end
oh, tonight, come, make me close both my eyes
love me like there’s nothing that holds me back
and then, then i’ll keep on wandering
hey, you, I apologize, for telling tales between two sighs
i can’t speak truth in other ways
i follow the airplanes in the sky, i follow each soul that walks on by
my head it turns the other way
maybe you’ll find me, astray, after one-two many drinks
when the crowd’s used up, and I’m obsessed with myself
in the palm of my hand
lies my soul, lies my land
i want to feel what i’ll never understand
’cause tonight I’m weaker than I’m wise
need me like there’s no way it will ever end
oh, tonight, come, make me close both my eyes
love me like there’s nothing that holds me back
and then, then i’ll keep on wandering
