"Absentee" lyrics

"Absentee"

Waiting for someone to show me
But I won't hold my breath
Nothing left
No control
Only pictures of someone I used to know
And I gave it all away and I can't take it back
Here I am, tornado

Every perfect day yet to come
I would sacrifice for one
One more moment with you
I don't want to waste another day
Won't you come in from the rain
Because you could be the most beautiful thing to me

You're worried now with this hurt in your hand
So strange here, I don't know the meaning
Who cares to know?
All I can say is you know that it's true
I said all I could say
Would you do it again?
Would you stand on your own leaving me right there, would you?
That's my rolling stone
Come on, let's do it again
You've had enough on your own
Maybe there's something left to find
I've been searching for something left behind
Could you do it again?
Would you do it again?

You and I are taking off
You're worried now with this hurt in your hand
So strange here, I don't know the meaning
Who cares to know?
All I can say, you know that it's you who means all the world to me
I know this is where I belong
Forget the warning signs
I know who you are and I'm fine

Waiting for someone, waiting for someone
Waiting for someone, waiting for someone
I know we are, we are
You know we are we are
I know we are, we are
I know we are, we are wrong

You're worried now with this hurt in your hand
So strange here, I don't know the meaning
Who cares to know?
Who cares to know?
Can you hear me calling you home?
Got to know that I've been calling you home
