I wish,
I wish,
I would have come home sooner
To be the good supporter,
To be the one to spoon her
If you can hang around for another hopeful day
I promise this will turn around,
Like sunshine after rain
Sometimes the road is hard,
And there's no easy way around it
I'd love to take the highline or the subway underground it
Maybe cut a corner,
Maybe thumb a friendly ride
But we've got to keep on moving
While time is on our side
It's hard to find your way with a flashlight on a bright day
When your map is just a white word
Written on a white page
We can take a little dark and sparks will have more meaning
I promise this will turn around,
As sure as my skin is peeling
I wouldn't be surprised if you're the one to pull us through
You deserve so much more than you would ever think you do
(yeah, you do!)
I think if i just swing enough I'll get a lucky hit
Then maybe we can plant a seed
And pour ourselves all over it
And we can grow together
And keep pushing through the pain
I promise this will turn around
