Everlong

Everlong

Everlong you wait for me as I play hide and seek

from the truth of your Love

Oh I show up when it benefits me and the nights are cold and scary and I am trapped in some Foxhole hole fighting a war I Will most likely never win but most likely started

but then when the dust settles and I feel safe and happy I dart like the deer hearing a noise in the woods

never getting that I could find rest

rest in you

I don't have to work or toil or try or earn

your Love

So I stop being silly and I sit by you on your bench and you exclaim i've been waiting for you and I suddenly feel safe

I suddenly feel at home

a feeling I could've had all along
