Was the way you moved,
and the way you smiled.
Didn’t mean a lot to me,
but then you got to me.
When I tried to fly,
was afraid of heights.
It was a shock to me,
I felt the drop.
Did I let you down? Was I late?
Well, I’m not the one to save you today.
You win on your own, it’s okay,
'cause I didn’t come to win anyway.
I think of the times I’ve had to lie to myself,
that all will be fine and I will find someone else.
Been down many roads but they all lead me to you.
Now I know what to do.
'Cause I am on a mission,
and you’re the one I’m missing.
In a gilded cage,
since you were born,
you wanted to be king,
but you wore a crown of thorns.
You want true love.
It’s a human right.
You wouldn’t let me in,
so I gave up.
Did I let you down? Was I late?
Well, I’m not the one to save you today.
You win on your own, it’s okay,
'cause I didn’t come to win anyway.
I think of the times I’ve had to lie to myself,
that all will be fine and I will find someone else.
Been down many roads but they all lead me to you.
Now I know what to do.
'Cause I am on a mission,
and you’re the one I’m missing.
You sang along while I played guitar,
catching kisses from a moving car.
I wear your coat 'cause you asked me to,
and when it’s cold I still miss you.
I am on a mission,
and you’re the one I’m missing.
