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
