lyrics
You're pretty goddamn strange,
or just a bit insane,
and nothing like the one that when I was young I pictured
but you're her anyways.
Our plans may never happen and the presents always passing,
so I'm working on filling up my past with,
memories and accidents,
nights full of laughing,
people and love that aren't passing,
and times I almost gave up but didn't,
I'm writing the story of my life and I want you in it.
I want you so let's go to the beginning,
because I'm tired of this lonely living.
Your hair is all wrong,
and your eyes are all wrong.
Your name is all wrong,
but I like the way you wear it,
I like the way they shine,
I like the way it sounds next to mine.
Maybe I was wrong, maybe I was wrong,
maybe I was what was wrong with love all along.
It's not something that you get to decide,
no it's just some faceless monster that wakes you in the night,
and I was alone when I saw it, in a cold, cold sweat,
because I realized there was nothing in the world that I've found yet,
no long perfect day, or wild manic minute that was better
than having you in it.
So let's go to the beginning,
because I'm tired of this lonely living.
Let's get back to the beginning,
because I just don't like life without you in it.
When I say that you're strange what I mean is you're not the same,
as anyone I've ever known and that freaks me out.
When I say you're insane, well what I meant,
is you're the only girl that I get.
When I say that you're great, really really great,
well what I mean baby is when I see your shape in the
grey morning light, and it's bunched up next to mine,
when I feel your breath settling on my chest,
I get freaked out because what if this is the best it ever gets,
what if you go and I've got to live in the shadow of what I've missed?
So when I say I hope you'll stay,
and forgive me for mistakes that I make along the way,
I hope you know that I mean it, I hope you know that I mean it,
I hope you know.
So let's go to the beginning,
because I'm tired of this lonely living.
Let's get back to the beginning,
because I just don't like life without you in it.
