[Verse 1]
I see myself in you
Watched you fight the battles thousand men, or no one could do
Missed you in the winters when you never came home
Remember days of feeling bitter, wished you better gone
It's all just part of the journey on yellow brick roads, a helluva' ghost
I stopped the thought of you and promises and veiled with the jokes
Forget it all, 'cause when you call I guess it's better than most
The simple talks about missing dogs could keep me settled and cozy, oh
I hate to think it makes you nauseous
All the things I do, just being honest (Hm)
Miss the days with James inside the rocket
All the space when I became a pilot
Rainy days in autmn
Never would've thought it
Your loving came with problems
I'm guessing that you caught it
Better come home
I see you lurking, looking, longing
I'll see you when you make it
You were never good at calling, well
Is it too late to ask the preacher man to save my soul?
I mean I never knew where I'd go
Send my momma home to rest my bones
I mean, to rest my ghost
I came way too far on my own (Tch)
Too late to ask the preacher man to save my soul?
I been waiting way too long
When I'm coming home I hope I see you there, yeah
I hope I see you
[Outro]
And I'm better off gone, I'm better off gone, I'm better off gone
And I'm better off gone, I'm better off gone, I'm better off gone
And I'm better off gone, I'm better off gone, I'm better off gone

[Intro: love-sadKid]
It's a long way home
'Til I wipe my eyes and I drag my feet and I rest my weary bones
If I fall asleep in your arms tonight, will you stay to keep me warm?
'Cause I feel like I'm falling apart and need you still (Still)
[Verse: love-sadKid]
And more often then not, your in your own little world
Filled with feeling wished away with a twirl
This twisted carousel of interests that remembering gets harder every second, face and distance
Loose myself in loneliness and find me in your kisses
Truth be told its colder, redefining what it isn't
Said it could be what it's supposed to be, so why are we dismissive?
Time alone together feels like fine for the winter
If your life for me retreats could we feel warm on top of embers? (Shit)
[Outro: love-sadKid]
'Cause I feel like I'm falling apart and need you still (Still)
It's a long way home

[Verse]
And my voice went hoarse, they told me don't speak no more
So my two step tapping 'til my feet get sore
I guess that nothing really mattered
Start your crying after, and maybe you can come back home
Bet I'll still be here tomorrow, pack my box and dig my grave
I miss the simple things, can't make it better
See the devil when they look at me
I'd close my eyes, apologize, if I could take it back
I guess it's life we learned that you can't really change the past
I guess it's growing up
All the petals thorns and roses when it's only love
All the seconds writing poems, guess that I could just bide my time
Hope that everybody else is here by my side
What I been waiting for
Five years later still ain't made it
Space don't feel the same and I'm sick
I guess it's better when we talk
Petals turn to feathers when we fall short
High enough to take me through withdrawals
I'm tethered to your call (Pick up, pick up, you didn't care at all)
And my voice went hoarse, they told me don't speak no more
So my two step tapping 'til my feet get sore
I guess that nothing really mattered
Start your crying after, and maybe you can come back home

Two, three, four
I got the world at my patio sitting back at my doorstep
'Cause honestly, I don't know what's in store yet
I gotta couple fears I could ignore here
They'll bite me in a minute if I never get some closure
And we fall pretty far 'til it's all okay
In the dark, shooting stars at your heart
City parks when we walked 'til it started to rain
And we ran and we kissed in your car
Guess I'm bound to admit it, I'm terrified of the finish
Who knew opening doors busted the hinges?
Never really bothered by the distance but insisted
If it's ripping me to bits then you'd be here with a swiftness
And never expect any different
And I never knew a love that ever felt like this, no
I never knew, I never knew a love
If there's a problem you can fix it, comically addictive
Take another hit off of your lips and then I'm lifting off gone, gone
I guess this world's a lil' bit better when we talk
And it's enough to make me play this game of hearts
We met in March, we fell in love, won't fall apart
Got me like (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Better in love (better, better, better in love)
Better in love (better, better, better in love)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Better in love
And I been feeling like if Cupid had it out for me
Fell for you so fast, I can't be sure that it's not alchemy
Who are you to show me love I've only seen in fantasy?
Hold me down and lift me up to spin me 'round and and tell me, "Hush"
And baby, is it possible to stay inside forever now?
I know that it gets good but it gets better when we settle down
So, I can't say it enough, I know you're the one, call my bluff
It's all the same, you know I'm game whatever you want
And I never knew a love that ever felt like this, no
I never knew, I never knew a love
And I never knew a love that ever felt like this, no
I never knew, I never knew a love
