Evan's Song

Last night I tried to confess
For you I'd erase all the rest
To think I thought I'd loved before
To think I fought so many wars
Making plans to chase the moon
Walk for hours into blue
Got too high to see it through
I fell asleep right next to you

Evan, you make me so brave
Now I've got someone to keep safe
You said, "As long as you're alive"
I'll have flowers and I'll be fine

Sometimes I feel like a ghost
A sailor drifting off course into the storm
Astronaut who's lost in space, now I just float
You're the one who picks me up and takes me home

Someone got murdered on TV
While you were naked next to me
We spent all day in that hotel
Talking around the things we felt

Evan, could I love you more?
There's nothing left I'm waiting for
Just when I thought I'd felt it all
I heard your footsteps in the hall

When I feel like I can't win
A little bird who's always flying against the wind
A stranger wandering, lost in time again
You're the one who unlocks the door and lets me in
You're the one who always brings me home again
