Lyrics
0:16Heavy were the nights
0:19When the fire burned low
0:23I was moving in circles
0:27Waiting for you to show
0:31Thinkin' too fast
0:35Tryna breathe slow
0:38Longing for the handle
0:43To turn on the door
0:47And every sign you passed along the way looked twisted and burnt
0:55With messages in languages you'd never seen or heard
1:02But you drove on anyway
1:10And oh,now
1:15All of a sudden you're here
1:17And i can't
1:22Remember a time when you weren't
1:24It's true, I had to believe
1:30That all the signs were arrows
1:34Pointin' you to me
1:57Steady were the wheels
2:01Under every bus
2:05Chasin' a horizon
2:09Nobody ever touched
2:13Singing into lights
2:17Questions over chords
2:21Hearing not an answer
2:24But the silence of applause
2:29And every hand i tried to hold would fit there a while
2:37Till one of us grew tired of pretending it felt right
2:44But the emptiness would burn
2:47It's hard to make yourself leave space
2:52For someone that may never emerge
2:59But oh, now
3:04All of a sudden you're here
3:07And I just can't
3:11Remember a time when you weren't
3:14It's true, I had to believe
3:19That all the signs were arrows
3:23Pointin' you to me
3:30They were pointin' you to me
3:47Every door that hit my face
3:50Every heady scent I've chased
3:54Every oil-slicked mountain road
3:57Every blackened tear that soaked
4:01Every twisted, shouted word
4:04Every god I've never heard
4:08Every smile he yanked from me
4:12Every light I could not see
4:20I'm thinking it's true
4:28That all those signs were arrows
4:32Pointin' me to you
Heavy were the nights When the fire burned low I was moving in circles Waiting for you to show Thinkin' too fast Tryna 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 Pointin' you to me Steady were the wheels Under every bus Chasin' 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 Till 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 Pointin' you to me They were pointin' you to me Every door that hit my face Every heady scent I've chased Every oil-slicked mountain road Every blackened tear that soaked Every twisted, shouted word Every god I've 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 Pointin' me to you
