Before I lay back down and close my eyes
It won't always be this way, I know the tide
It's just another time, and I sit, I'll try to write
I stumble through the day, I stay inside

Feel at the root
That I need you, and I need you
I don't mind all the words
They just sound like, like the feeling
And it's all getting old
'Cause I need you, and I need you
You let it take up every moment
Just a life to hear you say

Speaking when we don't know what to say
It's all the words I give and take from you each day
How can I look into your eye
And know exactly what's behind?
It's in it, all I keep aside

Feel at the root
That I need you, and I need you
I don't mind all the words
They just sound like, like the feeling
And it's all getting old
'Cause I need you, and I need you
You let it take up every moment
Just a life to hear you say
I know exactly what it was
I couldn't say it just because
I found it easier to speak in every moment
So can I be here without you?
