Heavy were the nights when the fire burnt low I was moving in circles, waiting for you to show Thinking too fast, trying to breathe slow Longing for the handle to turn on the door And every sign you passed along the way looked twisted and burnt With messages in languages, you'd never seen or heard But you drove on anyway ♪ And oh, now, all of a sudden you're here, and I can't Remember a time when you weren't, it's true, I had to believe That all the signs were arrows pointing you to me ♪ Steady were the wheels under every bus Chasing a horizon, nobody ever touched Singing into lights, questions over chords Hearing not an answer, but the silence of applause And every hand I tried to hold would fit there a while 'Til one of us grew tired of pretending it felt right But the emptiness would burn It's hard to make yourself leave space for someone that may never emerge But oh, now, all of a sudden you're here, and I just can't Remember a time when you weren't, it's true, I had to believe That all the signs were arrows pointing you to me They were pointing you to me ♪ Every door that hit my face Every heady scent I chased Every oil-slicked mountain road Every blackened tear that soaked Every twisted shouted word Every god I never heard Every smile he yanked from me Every light I could not see I'm thinking it's true That all those signs were arrows Pointing me to you
