Await the long light in a full-stop town
Where I prayed for blue sky, then stared at the ground
I tried standing up, tried turning around
I'm stuck inside with the curtains down

I still believe it, baby, what can I say?
I wanna keep my love in a hidden place
I, I want to leave, but I won't without you
I said I'd keep trying, I was telling the truth

Put your hand out giving's gonna get you closer
Won't you tell me what to do?
Lay your head down, take a little rest on my shoulder
We can start over new

I know who to call if I should stumble and fall
Commit a criminal act or two
With my hand out giving it my best to get closer
And I'm closer to you

Lost in my mind singing way too loud
And spitting on each face in the crowd
I tried standing up, I started following down
I'm shook inside and the band's in town

I still believe it, baby, what can I say?
They took my love and made a big mistake
They don't see it, baby, not like you do
I said I'd keep trying, I was telling the truth

Put your hand out giving's gonna get you closer
Won't you tell me what to do?
Lay your head down, take a little rest on my shoulder
We can start over new

I know who to call if I should stumble and fall
Commit a criminal act or two
With my hand out giving it my best to get closer
And I'm closer to you
