Lyrics
Oh, I’m watching, I’m listening
For the one thing you’re missing
What I am to what you are
Oh, but I know you’re worth the waiting
If there’s any separating
Your armor from your heart
I’m gonna be somebody to you
I know you’re gonna need somebody and when you do
I’m gonna be that somebody, somebody to you
When you’re thinking there’s no one you can trust to understand
I’m gonna be that somebody, somebody you can
When your head is heavy and your back’s against the wall
I’m gonna be that middle of the night, somebody you call
If even half of what I think I know is somehow true
I want to be that somebody, somebody to you
Oh, I’m watching, I’m listening
For the one thing you’re missing
What I am to what you are
Oh, and I know you’re worth the waiting
If there’s any separating
Your armor from your heart
I’m gonna be somebody to you
I’m way too far past the point of no return
I won’t go cold in the slow burn
You can complicate it, you can draw it on out
But you can’t stay forever in the shadow of doubt
You’re impossibly together
Like being alone is better anyway
If you loosen up your armor
Maybe not tomorrow but someday, someday
Oh, I’m watching, I’m listening
For the one thing you’re missing
What I am to what you are
Oh, I know you’re worth the waiting
Is there’s any separating
Your armor from your heart
Oh, what’s the use in stalling
Baby, I’m falling, don’t let me fall apart
I’m gonna be, I’m gonna be, I’m gonna be
Somebody to you
