I wanted to love you ‘til it hurt
I wanted the right to misbehave
And wasn’t it just my choice to make
(And it’s cosmic)
You know I’m here, I’m here
I wanted to find a way to put an end to part of my destruction
To know the things you know and why you did the things you do
I put these things aside for years
It’s like I was asleep
To satiate my crave
‘Til laughter took the place of tears
I put these things aside for years
I wanted to take your place just sometimes
I’m here, I’m here
I wanted to know what I was worth
‘Til laughter took the place of tears
I wanted to be your lonesome cowboy
I put these things aside for years
I wanted to be able to talk without the interruption
(And it’s cosmic)
The bed in which I lay?
I wanted to sing exotic words
Wasn’t it just my choice to make
The bed in which I lay?
Yet now I’m here
Yet now I’m here, I’m here
Oh, I wanted so much but only needed you
It’s like I was asleep
It’s like I was asleep
‘Til laughter took the place of tears
To say no one time and believe it
