[Verse 1]
Had waited so long
I didn't know what to wait for
Karma account overdrawn
And all jokers used up
Attention, damaged goods
I had warned everyone
Was like a ghost among ghosts
Perfectly disguised
[Bridge]
Some might have said
They can't be fixed
And if you get involved
Can only lose
[Pre-chorus]
But then you picked me up
Out of this monotony
Turned the fire back on
It was beautiful as never before
[Refrain]
And then you picked me up
Dipped everything in silver
And told me I was no more broken down
Than all the rest
(Since you came along I've been, I've been in love with everybody)
Since you've been around, I've been, I've been in love with everything)
[Verse 2]
Have slept through the days
Half-awake nights
And my curtainless windows
With newspaper opaque pasted
I've read War and Peace
Watched it all on Netflix
And watched the years
As they quietly pass
[Bridge]
Some might have said
You can't fix them
And if you let them
Can only lose
[Pre-chorus]
But then you picked me up
Out of this monotony
Turned the fire back on
It was beautiful as never before
[Refrain]
And then you picked me up
Dipped everything in silver
And told me I was no more broken down
Than all the rest
(Since you came along I've been, I've been in love with everybody)
Since you came along I've been, I've been in love with everything)
