Heroes and Thieves lyrics

When disaster it strikes on a daily basis

I'm looking for wisdom in all the wrong places

But still wanna laugh in disappointed faces

You can't help me I'm blinded by these

Heroes and thieves at my door

I can't seem to tell them apart anymore

Just when I've figured it out

Darling, it's you I'm without

Well, I'm stubborn and wrong but at least I know it

I keep moving along until I can get through this

But maybe this song is the best, I can do it

So I'm patiently waiting on these

Heroes and thieves at my door

I can't seem to tell them apart anymore

Just when I've figured it out

Darling, it's you, darling, it's you, oh darling, it's you

I'm without your comforting logic

Like these days are the ones I'll miss

And I see a solitude that I can't find without you

It seems like I'm getting closer somehow

A flicker of peace that I've finally found

Thank you for believing in me now

'Cause I do need it

Give me a year or two

I'll mend my ways and see these mistakes

And when I see the truth, darling, trust me

When I can't see I'll be coming back, I'll be coming back to you

There are heroes and thieves at my door

I can't seem to tell them apart anymore

Just when I've figured it out

Well, darling, it's you, my darling, it's you

Oh darling, it's you I'm without
