But I wasn't getting nowhere fast
I was lost, I was wrong, I was searching
I was reckless and helpless and hurting
You're the road I wanna break down on
But you've reached me, baby
In the pouring rain
(Taking me on)
I was reckless and helpless and hurting

I was reckless and helpless and hurting
(Taking me on)
I was lost, I was wrong, I was searching
Girl, I love you for taking me on
I was lost, I was wrong, I was searching
I was reckless and helpless and hurting
But you've reached me, baby
I was lost, I was wrong, I was searching
You saved me from me before I was too far gone
I was reckless and helpless and hurting
You saved me from me before I was too far gone
(Too far gone)

I was lost, I was wrong, I was searching
(Taking me on)
I was lost, I was wrong, I was searching
I was reckless and helpless and hurting
But you've reached me, baby
You brought me miles from where you found me
You're the sunlight through my window pane
And now I ain't going back
'Cause I know I'm not easy to hold

I was reckless and helpless and hurting
'Cause I know I'm not easy to hold
I spent my life just spinning my wheels
I was lost, I was wrong, I was searching
The favorite words I've ever said
I was reckless and helpless and hurting
Girl, I love you for taking me on
You saved me from me before I was too far gone

I was lost, I was wrong, I was searching
I was lost, I was wrong, I was searching
You're the perfume on my dirty shirt
You took my foot off the gas
'Cause I know I'm not easy to hold
You're the edge I just stepped off of
I was reckless and helpless and hurting
You were strong enough to carry me all the way
Girl, I love you for taking me on
