Lyrics: I’m endlessly forgiving of the way I live my life I’m late to come to wisdom and I’m late to see the light I asked you for your favourite song, you played it to me twice I knew the words by the time you dropped me home. Now those memories are distant but those memories are nice Sustained me for a minute but I’m running out of time I’m worried about the losses and the love I’ve left behind I know I’m gone but I don’t know where I’m going I could have sworn I heard it this morning Like your voice was a part of that wind I felt important when I was yours and I want it back more than I can admit, But I think about you often, lately, I Have this dream about returning, safely Will you be there? When I walk down that road Will you be there? Cause I’m so scared, that you won’t Eventually I’ll come to see that nothing stays unsaid Because it festers in my spirit till I’m restless in my bed The dark is kept in business while the joy is left for dead I guess the proof of that is now you’re not around Florence for a minute brought me closer to a God Closer to the roots of this and why we try so hard Why we cry until our vision’s blurry just like the facade How it lifts you up until it breaks you down I could have sworn I heard it this morning Like your voice was a part of that wind I felt important when I was yours and I want it back more than I can admit But I think about you often, lately, I Have this dream about returning, safely Will you be there? When I walk down that road Will you be there? Cause I’m so scared, that you won’t Feel the same as when I left you, ancient times Had a dream about returning Is that just my pride? Will you be there? When I walk down that road Will you be there? Cause I’m so scared, that you won’t
