Give My World Back To Me
Give my world back to me
Painted in irony
I wish I'd never met you
On that timid August night
There's sugar on your nose
A thorn on every rose
A crack in every star
And it's just who you are
You're the light at the end of my tunnel
You're the warmth that surrounds me
When I'm drowning in sorrow
You're the truth to my fiction
That gives it all meaning
You're the reason why
This is just the beginning
Your name on my lips
Is like an angel's kiss
It just feels right
I'm walking in on a dream
Yet everything feels so real
So don't let me wake up tonight
Give my world back to me
Painted in irony
I wish I'd never met you
On that timid August night
There's sugar on your nose
A thorn on every rose
A crack in every star
And it's just who you are
You're brutally honest
And you do what you feel
I see it in your eyes
You live for what is real
I know you've hurt before
I know it was your fault
But baby I'll take my chances
When your heart is the vault
You are the magic
That I seek to channel
You are the beauty
That runs in the narrow
You've left me both empty
And full of myself
You've left disappointed
Like nobody else
Give my world back to me
Painted in irony
I wish I'd never met you
On that timid August night
There's sugar on your nose
A thorn on every rose
A crack in every star
And it's just who you are
You give this world colour
You give this world meaning
We'll tell our kids
To never stop dreaming
They'll have your eyes
And my sense of humour
Forever, forever, forever is a late bloomer
