Making my way through the saga
I've been writing my whole life,
I didn't see her coming, a strange twist in my tale
But you don't get any time off
when you're searching for something,
so I kept moving, let the wind stay in my sail
She's been my little lady
for 'bout three years running now,
trying hard this time to make this something last
But it's never easy on her
while I'm flying all around
Being lonely ain't a thing I'd ever ask
It was just coincidental
that we wound up as a pair,
so many pieces of our puzzle didn't fit
So it got a little messy,
pieces lying everywhere,
despite our best attempts to make some sense of it
Gunning for a hidden treasure
lying somewhere up ahead,
I didn't want to die, thinking "there's one thing I missed"
It's a long shot, by any measure,
where two people live as one
I didn't think both of our worlds could coexist
Then I drop from the sky on a cold winter breeze,
I look down, and see her waiting there for me, and I say:
"Oh, yeah"
It's another conversation,
one we never really had,
where we finally figure out what's going on
But waiting for just the right moment
means you'll wait a million years,
'cause the silence is the one thing you'll say wrong
We both tried to live conventional,
like they told us that we should,
watching all the best things that we once had fade
You give up some natural freedom
for some fake security,
then realize that's not how our kind is made
Then I drop from the sky on a cold winter breeze,
I look down, and see her waiting there for me, and I say:
"Oh, yeah"
