lyrics

“Alchemist”

You were the empty rooms that I sang to
Almost every night of that life
And you were the darkness that I clung to
When I closed my eyes

You are someone I used to know
For ten long years, not long ago
You are someone that I used to know

I wish I’d been an alchemist
I would have turned our time to gold
So I could finally just one thing I could hold onto
Now that I see, you will always be just that much out of reach
For me
You will always be out of reach…for me

“You are just so close to being great.”
Is what you said to me
On a late night drive home from NYC

And I always thought that the truth would set us free
But I always that the truth was
That you loved me, that you loved me
I wish I’d been an alchemist
I would have turned our time to gold
So I could finally just one thing I could hold onto
Now that I see, you will always be just that much out of reach
For me
You will always be out of reach…for me
For me

I wish I’d been an alchemist
I would have turned our time to gold
So I could finally just one thing I could hold onto
Now that I see, you will always be just that much out of reach
For me
You will always be out of reach…for me

You were the empty rooms
Darkness that I clung to
And someone, someone
I used to know
