Color myself jaded
All the years I thought I'd wasted
Every song I wrote and hated
Well I guess they're worth it now
I am learning to take things in stride
I am finding myself in the words that I write
I'm watching you across the room
Your weathered eyes poured out like the moon
Over this sleeping town
And I couldn't help but smile as you bit your lip and riled up the boys for miles around
I had no doubts
You had me in the clouds
And I said "oh no, tell me you won't go
We could stay up all night, talk until the sunrise
I could think of nothing better, than you and me together
And if you'd give me just a chance to prove you're everything I need
If you'd follow my lead, the weight the world wouldn't feel so heavy"
Color myself jaded
All the years where I just waited
Not to feel so alienated, well I guess those days are gone
I'm starting to feel alright
With your help and your hand I will be just fine
It felt like time slowed down, I felt my heartbeat twice as loud
As my feet began to move
And I snapped out of this trance, when I saw that you caught my glance
And there was nothing left to do, I walked up to you
And I told you the truth
And I said "oh no, tell me you won't go
We could stay up all night, talk until the sunrise
I could think of nothing better, than you and me together
And if you'd give me just a chance to prove you're everything I need
If you'd follow my lead, the weight the world wouldn't feel so heavy"
You looked towards the floor
Cheeks flushed and smiling, you warmed me to the core
You laughed and shut the door
You said "You were in my dreams, now you are in my arms
I'm learning to wait out the weather, to never, oh never, say never
You were in my dreams, I feared of false alarms,
I can think of nothing better than you and me together,
Just tell me you won't go, we could stay up all night pretend we won't grow old
Just tell me you won't go, we'll talk until the sunrise warms our winter bones
Warms our winter bones.
