lyrics

I’ve no idea who you are
but all the time, you’re on my mind
when I was gone you broke into my home
my door was unlocked, and I was too kind

I know I live just one time
so I don’t mind you here tonight
and I know I shouldn’t be doing this
but I will lie- pretend it’s alright

only you can know
that I gave you a home

I know why you want to cry
‘cause I can’t find myself in this place
and I know I’m no self-righteous loverboy
but all that changed when I saw her face

who the hell can see
what any of this means?

everything I want
I don’t need

only you and me
living in a dream
