Frank Turner - Longing for the Day lyrics

[Frank Turner - Longing for the Day lyrics]

I've been trying to find a way that
I could say it you -
Say it you, all that I've been trying to say
I've been stuttering my way from
Here to anywhere -
Anywhere you can hear me stutter away

I've been longing for the day
When you would say "Hey
I feel a little fragile today
And I was wondering if I could drop on by?"

I've been talking to total strangers in
The middle of the night
Because I get so nervous when
I dial your number
That I never quite punch it in right
In spite of me
So I haven't been as strong as
I had thought I'd be
But, I think I've been stronger
Than you would concede
So let's do that exercise where
You close your eyes and fall back onto me
And you will see I'm strong after all

I will lift you up if you'll lay me down

So today could be the day
When we both say "Hey
I feel a little fragile today
And I was wondering if I could drop on by?"

So I won't be nervous when I dial your
Number in the middle of the night
I will clear my throat
Then I'll sing this song
And I'll be out the door and round before
The first of the new day's light
