When You’re Here

Ever changing, Ever moving
Ever finding, Ever losing
Every moment of our choosing bears a cost
As for lonely, I can show you
How to live a life alone
All it takes is getting used to getting lost

Some are lovers, some are leeches
Summer flings on sandy beaches
Some are silent till the chances are all gone
The Queen of Hearts dreams a lover
From that cold, cold King above her
While the Joker makes his bed up all alone

But don’t I feel like something when you’re here
Don’t I feel my lungs losing air
Don’t I feel like I can show you
I’m the one that you can go to
When you need another heartbeat near
Don’t I feel like something when you’re here

In my heart stands a scarecrow
If he’s hurt he doesn’t say so
And he chases everything he loves away
But at night when its colder
There’s a bluebird on his shoulder
And he whispers that he’ll hold her one bright day

Don’t I feel like something when you’re here
Don’t I feel my lungs losing air
Don’t I feel like I can show you
I’m the one you can go to
When you need another heartbeat near
Don’t I feel like something when you’re here.
