He says, You will never know
There are no rhymes to do you justice
And he will sit there, outside
Until you no longer doubt his purpose

So, I let him in
I opened the door, and let him in
Yah, I let him in Opened my heart

Some wounds will never heal
Loneliness becomes an expectation
But you stretched there by my side
And you whisper those foolish incantations

So, I let her in
A crooked smile and I let her in
Opened the door, she walked right in
I opened my heart

It came to me wrapped like a gift in a dream
But then the dream disappeared
And the gift went too
And ever since I've been searching
For me and you
Ever since I've been searching for you
