Vanessa Carlton — Heroes & Thieves lyrics

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 and hope 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
'Cause 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
