lyrics

you are not the one i was searching for
and i was not your prey either, but
we held on to hope,
perhaps with lack of foresight, but then
you are everything i could ask for and more
every single day of your remarkable smile
you're the caulk in the cracks of my life
and the universe, please stay a while
oh yeah, please stay
even though you can't be what i want you to be
that's not what i need, anyway

now i am bereft of you, but still
i must continue on
assimilate into some lifeless milieu of automatons
everyone around me is holed up in their own worlds
but i'm in yours, accidentally
you kicked me out long ago
but still
can i stay with you?
i mean, if you want me to
it's up to you, not me.

you once asked me politely
with a heavy heart
not to go missing from your life
but now that's all you could ask for.

but still, i love every second that i'm with you
even if you don't love me anymore
and i guess that was expected,
'cause everything is just a matter of time.
