Despite all things your finding no one will listen.
You try escaping any rationalism.
How could two people be so completely different,
yet, so much very the same?
You keep on trying though you feel so defenseless.
I know some things will surely ruffle your feathers.
I’ve hit the bottom but now I am no longer scared,
I’m just better prepared.

Who said this race would end here?
Who said that?

I listen even though it does sound quite crazy.
I will put it together with out complaining
and then I will deliver them re-arranged and sore
like so many before.
How can one put in so much time and such effort
knowing the chance that things may never be different?
Isn’t it better to be straight and connected
then be unhappy again?

Who said this race would end here?
Who said that?

Who said that things will always be this way?
And I can see it all there right in front of me.
So what should we do from now?
What should I do for us?
what should we do?

You cant ignore the problem, you know its not going away
You want to go but want you to stay.
I cant imagine this pain your going through
And if you leave me here I’m coming too.

But everybody loves you
Everybody loves you
Everybody loves you
Everybody loves you.

I can see your stumbling, your tripping and your lost
My hands are tied but my fingers are crossed.
If you decide to leave here will you stop in and say goodbye
Find a way oh promise me you’ll try.

Because everybody loves you
Everybody loves you
Everybody loves you
Everybody loves you.

Don’t leave me here asleep.
I cant wait for a change, re-arrange it so that every things ok.

Everybody loves you
Everybody loves you
Everybody loves you
Everybody loves you.

I am happy right now don’t you worry.
I have found myself in much worse places.
I have found contentment in these spaces
and now I finally feel like I have found home.

So go and do what you have to do.
I will be waiting.
And though there is nowhere I would rather be
than to be with you now.
I know if you come back to me
we could be a great thing,
but I’ll be OK if you don’t.

Just to have you close enough so I could touch you.
I could open up my eyes and see you next to me
and though its sad to say our goodbyes I will be alright
because I’m happy in my life and I have so much to do.

Go and do what you have to do.
I will be waiting.
And though there is nowhere I would rather be
than to be with you now.
I know if you come back to me
we could be a great thing,
but I’ll be OK if you don’t.

Now I’ve stopped and I take some time
I don’t really know why I was so unhappy.
And with some patience, if I am grateful,
god knows, anything can happen.

So go and do what you have to do.
I will be waiting.
And though there is nowhere I would rather be
than to be with you now.
I know if you come back to me
we could be a great thing,
but I’ll be OK if you don’t.

Turn it off.
I don’t need this radio on.
I don’t need reminding anymore.

It makes me sick
in stomach and in my mind
because I will not cope,
like I don’t with all these things around me.

If I could change,
just one thing around me is troubling me
I would change the way people think.
Some part of me
will eventually learn to accept
but until then I will pretend that nothing can touch me.

Its too late,
though I do see things clearly,
Its too late.
Though I do hope for a change.

To be in control.
I wish I could come and play god.
All the things I would do
and all the amendments I would make.
Will be OK?
I don’t want a war at my feet.
Don’t be nonchalant,
its getting us nowhere
except into more and more strife.

Its too late,
though I do see things clearly,
Its too late.
Though I do hope for a change.

I thought I’d lost you,
but to my surprise you were there
wanting to be with me.
I can’t believe you would want to be with me.

You hold me close
and make me feel like I am safe with you.
I can be anything and not feel stupid.
I’m sure you feel that way too.

Something sweet and wonderful
has come my way and I do believe
I am deserving of this gift
you give to me.

I’ll make you promise
a thousand times that you are going nowhere.
You and I trace hands
and I think how I would like to see them age.

I see you there across the road
and I can’t wait for you to tell me
all about your day.
I’m so excited to see that you are so happy too.

Something sweet and wonderful
has come my way and I do believe
I am deserving of this gift
you give to me.
