ON MY WAY TO YOU

On my way to you, a broken heart or two,
Sometimes theirs, sometimes mine
Sometimes both at the same time
On my way to you, a shattered dream or two
My grand design’s been undermined
By what could not be without you

Some say I’ll never find a true heart that beats like mine
They say there’s too little love and too little time
If you could only show yourself
You’ve got me talking to myself again and again and again and again

On my way to you, it was mostly about me
My feuds, my moods, my comfort foods
To replace what I was missing
On my way to you, venetian red, indigo blue
Hoping, wishing, reminiscing, I’m hugging, never kissing

Some say I’ll never find a true heart that beats like mine
They say there’s too little love and too little time
If you could only show yourself
You’ve got me talking to myself again and again and again and again

On my way to you, our secret rendezvous is still hush-hush
No need to rush this legend in the making

On my way to you, don’t worry, I’ll be true
Under lock and key, fait accompli
Even though my heart is breaking

On my way to you, I try not to force the issue
Paradise must have its price, now quit your belly-aching.
On my way to you, I keep my faith in you
Seldom dating, medicating, you know me, I’m always waiting

On my way to you, ring in the old, ring out the new
Complaints, restraints, my patron saints, a lifetime in the making
On my way to you, the only one who’s true
Don’t lie to me, the child in me is tired of this forsaking

On my way to you, to you
On my way to you
On my way to you, to you
On my way to you
On my way to you
On my way to you
On my way to you
On my way to you
