Well, my face has all changed from the cruelty of age I still miss you In a dream, you forgave me And I almost did it myself But I woke back up I'm always procrastinating Evading the job of going through them boxes in the attic As long as they're in the dark There's a flickering spark we'd repair Just wanna talk to you Wanna talk with my best friend Wanna let go of everything that I carry Wanna shoulder some of yours instead I wanna hurt with you Hurt with somebody who understands Have the strength to truly like myself Have the love to take someone's hand I was down in the Low Lights Getting hounded by moths and dickheads Your uncle came in And I geared up for one on the nose He was sombre and kind As I self-flagellated and grovelled Told me to come back But I cheated, and it's over Shrinks somehow link it all back to your upbringing Oh, but I don't want an excuse for my mess I just wanna talk to you Wanna talk with my best friend Wanna let go of everything that I crave Wanna shoulder some of yours instead I wanna hurt with you Hurt with somebody who understands Have the strength to truly like myself Have the love to take someone's hand I wanna talk to you I wanna talk to you Oh, I just wanna talk to you Only wanna talk to you Only wanna talk to you Only wanna talk to you, talk to you Seven years wrapped in his great love You picked me up and sucked the cancer from my bones Your old man loved me like a son he never had And I ate him outta house and home I have love, and I will never stop learning My failures are my prized possession I don't deserve to talk to you Well, I hope that I can root for you
