I operate a searchlight From a tower through a window Many hours I spend looking for you Ever since you've been gone So I've been looking for you baby Every morning and every evening You never said the reasons But you said we'd meet again And when the storms that you once threw Get thrown back at you And you just can't stand to stand in your own skin I'll let you in I'm nailed to the tail of a whale At the bottom of an ocean Any day here I'll have to Come back up for air I'll be waiting for you baby In the city in the jungle Sitting pretty waiting for you Knock on my door So when the friends that you once knew Don't remember you And they tell you that you can't be born again I'll let you in I control the weather From a dial in the kitchen Lighting fires from the burner It's absurd but it works just fine I've been thinking about places I've been to and have loved me And I've had to been sad to Had to leave cuz things got lost [And when the friends that you once knew Don't remember you] And you just don't think you'll ever learn again I'll let you in
