[Verse 1]
You know, I never wanted it to be like this
I've been lost in sandstorms, left naked by your kiss
In the face of God, oh, and His poison leaves
The way it feels right now, oh, yeah, I really want to believe
You
[Verse 2]
So now you look on me with sad, black eyes
Well, I heard it coming, yeah, and you know I lost my smile
In a January, yeah, that never ends
The gold affections of my past now are just rusted tin, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, I really want to begin again
I miss you as my lover, as my best friend
Yeah, baby, I, I want you right by my side
With you, baby, I'd spend all my time
[Chorus]
They said they'd write a book someday
About the boy who always strayed
And a girl who took the fog away
Man, if it could be that way
Then I would come without delay
Yes, with a smile on my face
And I would not be lost for long
And I could be your title song
[Verse 3]
So every now and then, I get sad, yes, it's true
Well, you've known me long enough now, baby, yeah, it's nothing new
Like, like when I'm feeling bad, I feel underwater, I feel blue
And you know the only thing I ask from you, baby
Well, is can I swim to you? Yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, I really want to begin this again
'Cause I miss you as my lover, I miss my best friend
Oh, baby, I, I just want you right by my side
Yeah, 'cause with you, girl, I would spend all my time
[Chorus]
Said we'd write a book someday
'Bout the boy who always strayed
Girl who took the fog away
Man, if it could be that way
Then I would come without delay
With a smile on my face
And I would not be lost for long
And you could be my title song
Yeah
[Instrumental Break]
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, baby, I, yes, I want to begin this again
Well, 'cause I miss my lover, yes, I miss my best friend
Oh, baby, you know I want you right by my side
Yeah, with you, baby, I'll spend all my time
[Chorus]
Said we'd write a book someday
'Bout the boy who always strayed
Girl that took the fog away
Man, if it could only be that way
I would come without delay
With a smile on my face
And I would not be lost for long
And you could be my title song
Well, I won't be lost for long
You could be my title song
My title song
