lyrics

Have you ever met a flower who didn't say pick me?
But go round picking flowers, you'll soon have much too much to carry.

I'd be lying if I didn't say I want to take you home.
I know you've got one out there, but I can be the place you run
When this worlds a wreck

What we needs a simple next step
may I suggest that we both undress?

Don't underestimate my love, don't underestimate my patience
I've been through this whole show before,
Born and died, I'll live once more
I'm getting tired, tired, tired of this old revolving door
Let's run away and start again, that's what these legs are for
Let's burn it down and build again, that's what these hands are for.
Take my body, take my mind, that'll have to be enough
Because it's too late, I love you. Good luck.

I'm here for now you're there for good,
We learn from what we lose
And were losing what we should

Time's a patient teacher, makes me wait to pay the cost
While I draw the map that gets me lost

I found someone that held someone that loved someone who knew
That patience is a virtual reality tour
Of natural consequence
