Give My World Back To Me Lyrics

Give my world back to me

Painted in irony

I wish I'd never met you

On that timid August night

There's sugar on your nose

A thorn on every rose

A crack in every star

And it's just who you are

You're the light at the end of my tunnel

You're the warmth that surrounds me

When I'm drowning in sorrow

You're the truth to my fiction

That gives it all meaning

You're the reason why

This is just the beginning

Your name on my lips

Is like an angel's kiss

It just feels right

I'm walking in on a dream

Yet everything feels so real

So don't let me wake up tonight

Give my world back to me

Painted in irony

I wish I'd never met you

On that timid August night

There's sugar on your nose

A thorn on every rose

A crack in every star

And it's just who you are

You're brutally honest

And you do what you feel

I see it in your eyes

You live for what is real

I know you've hurt before

I know it was your fault

But baby I'll take my chances

When your heart is the vault

You are the magic

That I seek to channel

You are the beauty

That runs in the narrow

You've left me both empty

And full of myself

You've left disappointed

Like nobody else

Give my world back to me

Painted in irony

I wish I'd never met you

On that timid August night

There's sugar on your nose

A thorn on every rose

A crack in every star

And it's just who you are

You give this world colour

You give this world meaning

We'll tell our kids

To never stop dreaming

They'll have your eyes

And my sense of humour

Forever, forever, forever is a late bloomer
