lyrics

All of the times that you came to me
When I was down in the dumps
And I didn't know you were there
Bringing me new meaning
And bringing me your love

When I was your beacon of desperation
Your long lost light in the fog
Calling you home to my heart
Bringing me your new words
Bringing me your love

All these days I can't seem to find you
I wonder what you've become
Baby it ain't coming easy
Since you been gone

Is our little love affair over girl?
Quick hit and run on my heart?
You brought me to some deeper purpose
And you made it look easy
Just coming on strong

But I can't steal your few moments
Monopolize all of your love
Save it all up in my pocket
Defeating our purpose
And the sum of our parts

All these days I can't seem to find you
And I wonder what you've become
Baby it ain't coming easy
Since you been gone

I had this friend he played drums for me
When we were both foolish and young
He reached that successful illusion
Now he says it ain't easy
And it ain't even fun

I suppose I should count all my blessings
Instead I just count all my wants
Save 'em all up in my pocket
Like it's everything I asked for
Or all I ever got

All these days I can't seem to find you
I wonder what you've become
Baby it ain't comin easy
Since you been gone
