If I Wanted Someone

Like the memory from your mother's house from before you got too old Like the feeling from a photograph before it's meanings all got told The words I say can be silver, but what's left unsaid can be gold So get to know me once I go away Maybe 'cause I come from such an empty-hearted town Or maybe 'cause some love of mine had really let me down But the only time I am lonely is when others are around I just never end up knowing what to say If I wanted someone to clean me up, I'd find myself a maid If I wanted someone to spend my money, I wouldn't need to get paid If I wanted someone to understand me, I'd have so much more to say I want you to make the days move easy I took everything I thought from what it means to be a man We need words to be put to what we do not understand While you lean into the echoes and you do not raise a hand Oh woman, help me see it like it is If I wanted someone to clean me up, I'd find myself a maid If I wanted someone to spend my money, I wouldn't need to get paid If I wanted someone to understand me, I'd have so much more to say I want you to make the days move easy If I wanted someone to clean me up, I'd find myself a maid If I wanted someone to spend my money, I wouldn't need to get paid If I wanted someone to cut me down, I'd have handed you the blade I want you to make the days move easy I just want you to make the days move easy
