"things i want" lyrics

I want to find someone like you
But I know me
I'd lose her too soon

We were only eighteen when she left me
Ran away quietly as she's always been
She was only a child when
When her mother lost her head
Now she lives over the moon
It's hard to find someone you don't want to

But I want to find someone like you
But I know me
I'd lose her too soon
I'd lose her too soon

Try my best to reach her
But her head belongs in the clouds
Never found someone quite like that
Who could never keep her feet on the ground
And I'll watch her go
Pass through the seams
Melt through the cracks of a past
Where she forgot about me
And I know I won't find her again
I'm not sleeping in an empty bed

But I want to find someone like you
But I know me
I'd lose her too soon

And I want to (I want to) make it up to you
I don't know what I did
But I was just a kid

And I want to
Go back to where I was
I wish that you would see me
Just this once
