From the recording But You
Lyrics
Many times,
I’ve fallen short embracing You,
never fully,
never true
Bad times would come,
right by my side -healing me,
again and again,
my good friend
One of these times,
one of these cold and lonely times,
You came to stay,
I pushed You away,
– There’s time
Good times would come,
and I would turn my back on You,
an endless trend,
my best friend
One of these times,
one of these cold and lonely times,
You came to stay,
I pushed You away,
– Next time
Hard times return,
and I invite You in once more,
You save me again,
my only friend
Things start to improve,
and I decide I don’t need You,
You came to stay,
I pushed You away
You said my friend,
there’s no time to pretend,
and please don’t push You away,
You said You’ve never changed,
always eased my pain,
this time let You stay, stay, stay, stayyyyyy
One of these times,
one of these cold and lonely times,
You came to stay,
I asked You stay
– for all time
