Saviour

I guess you were someone I could believe in Someone I could put my faith into But you had me stumbling You had me grieving Coming unstuck, coming unglued And I guess that's just the way it goes I guess that's the way it is An awkward smile, a bloody nose, the lipgloss on your lips I want you to be my saviour Like you, you know that you could I want you to be my lover Like you, you know that you should I guess I was someone You had been missing Someone you could sink your teeth into But I was confusing, you were misleading Two sides of a story, partly true And I guess that's just the way it is I guess that's the way it goes When I said you should keep them But you still returned my clothes I want you to be my saviour Like you, you know that you could I want you to be my lover Like you, you know that you should And all of the times that I lied When I told you I could do better The things I wrote in that letter And all of the times that you cried The tears running down to your sweater Well, I didn't mean to upset ya I just don't wanna let ya go You're always gonna be my saviour Like you, like only you could I'm always gonna be your lover Like we, we knew that I would And with one hand on the book I'll pray like I should
