I just fell in the deep end Like a lush without her weekend I wrote this for you kid It's not what I wanted but I need it But man it's a long trip From all the crazy things I've seen in this world I'm blessed, I guess
What if I was the secret and you couldn't keep it And I swear I saw something good in your eyes before And if I sang it in the right key And I asked you politely for you to find a way home
(Find a way home, whoa, whoa)
I find it difficult to sleep when all the walls Seem to talk to me I find it that I can laugh Because my heart's so fucked up I can barely stand the Sudden sounds of the cars outside The red and greens on the traffic lights That the only thing I got is this The only thing I want is this
Memories to make me smile A girl to stand there and so she can admire The way I can never ever really keep my hands to myself But the alcohol tastes so sweet When it's mixed with lies and defeat Oh all the battles I lost and lost again
What if I was the secret and you couldn't keep it And I swear I saw something pretty in your eyes before And if I sang it in the right key And I asked you politely for you to find a way home
(Find a way, a way, a way, a way)
What if you were the secret And I didn't see it And I swear to God I wish these thoughts of mine Could create the sunshine It's beautiful as your eyes I paint this night sky And it's not like you need this I just wanted you to see it Tonight
