lyrics

I need a friend
someone I can depend on
mend my ways and
heal all my scars on
and I need that more than I need myself

Don't have a home
a place to roam in
get lost and scared
and wind up all alone in
and I don't see that as a threat to anyone else

Why do I gotta collect all the pieces
putting them together always seemed easy
all that was white suddenly went black

I want a road
One that's always open
put on a record
and quit this fuckin' mopin’
cuz Andy’s got it bad, maybe worse than I do

Protect the sea
it’s the only thing that sacred
I’m makin’ days that
aren’t meant to be makin’
good god sweetheart, it’s a tricky thing lovin' you

Why do I gotta collect all the pieces
putting them together always seemed easy
all that was white suddenly went black

when I wake up
from this dream, or so it seems
I loose sleep, and if that's true,
is this dream just a dream?

I want my lover
she's over in Indiana
I thought I told her
it's not something that you plan
but I didn't give up, I tried and tried and tried

We can try
altering our fate, dear
it's never late
at least that's what I feel
I never give up, I'll try and try and try
