Lyrics

Well, disaster, it strikes on a daily basis
I'm looking for wisdom in all the wrong places
But still want to laugh in disappointed faces
But you can't help me
I'm blinded by these
Heroes and thieves at my door
I can't seem to tell them apart anymore
Just when I've figured it out
Darling, it's you I'm without
Well, I'm stubborn and wrong
But at least I know it
I keep moving along and hope I can get through this
But maybe this song is the best I can do it
So, I'm patiently waiting on these
Heroes and thieves at my door
I can't seem to tell them apart anymore
Just when I've figured it out
Well, darling it's you
Darling, it's you, oh
Darling, it's you I'm without
Your comforting logic
Like these days are the ones I'll miss
And I seek a solitude
That I can't find without you
Ah-ah
Da-da-da
Seems like I'm getting closer somehow
A flicker of peace that I've finally found
Thank you for believing in me now
'Cause I do need it
Well, give me a year or two
And I'll mend my ways and see these mistakes
And when I see the truth
Well, darling, trust me
When I can't see I'll be coming back
I'll be coming back, 'cause there are
Heroes and thieves at my door
I can't seem to tell them apart anymore
Just when I've figured it out
Well, darling, it's you
Oh, darling, it's you
Oh, darling it's you I'm without
Da-da-da
Ah-ah-ah
