Once I was a broken bottle Lying in a crowded bar Waiting for the band to start again And from the floor I'd stare up At the bright lights and the silhouettes Cast along the wall behind your head
Oh I would wait For you to find me there
I would be a letter Bold and unapologetic I'd have myself delivered to your hands And you would know me by the way My word curve up around the page And form a poem I could not read out loud
Oh I would wait And you would know me then
Have you ever begged to ask a question Of a song or tried to know someone By following their words? 'Cause sometimes you're a broken bottle Waiting to be undiscovered In between the bright lights and the door
Oh I would wait And you would find me there Oh I would wait And you would find me there
