Horrorshow - Walk You Home (This Day) lyrics

She said she don't believe in regrets
Well I regret to inform her that I do
Rainfall on a tin roof
Inside I sit and scribble a Haiku
On the napkin that came inside
Of our takeaway Thai food
It goes: "Our time is always
Our season is all year round
This is our secret" for as long
As we can keep it
The deepest of secrets that nobody knows
The root of the root
The bud of the bud and so it goes
And the lyrics of a 1000
Songs couldn't paint her picture
So beautiful, she had me from my
First conversation with her
See, nobody was ever as clever
And I still can't figure how
They put her together
Sittin' in the room where we first
Got lost in one another
Just trippin' off the feelin'
Of together we'd discovered
And I'm reminiscin' on days past
Escapin' to Pearl
Before takin' that whole and
Makin' it two halves
But it was scary to be even
This close to a perfect fit close your eyes
I promise this won't hurt a bit
This is the kind of love that inspires
The stuff I write my poems to
The kind of love you have to leave
Just to come home to

You play with fire and you get burnt
For all the things that I have learnt
And I would love to walk you home
If not the one, then you're the first
For all the things that I have learnt
And I would love to be
The one to walk you home

Now ain't it funny
How the ones that you drag all
The way through your hell
The same who can teach you how
To touch heaven as well
And now it's out of order and we oughta know
You try to fit a square through a
Circle and it's flaws will show
And it's gone now
You wouldn't even know it was there
But, you'd get lost tryna navigate
The moments we've shared
Like when we held each other's
Hands and we said goodbye
Tears streamin' out our eyes
Like somebody had died
Now it's the day after your
Birthday and it's pourin' outside
And I'm catchin' arrow tips with my
Fingers down the phone line
See, she broke my heart on the river
The trump played last gets
The job done quicker
So I'm singin' to my palindromic angel
Held her too tightly
Wings got broken and the love got strangled
But
I don't wanna hold you back, girl, go fly
Conquer yourself, all the corners of the sky
But, I hope that you are close by
On the day that I leave
This world with hands held
We can close our eyes
And let the second hand go by
'Cause, I wouldn't wanna not say goodbye
Let you know that you touched my life
And whether I like it or not
I think a part of me will
Never give up this fight
'Cause there's nothin' like you and I
No, there's nothin' like you and I
But, it's gettin' late in the game now
Outcome's uncertain
These are things that I needed
To say before the curtain
So I wrote you the song that
You deserve to let you know
You will always be my first
And most wonderful love

You play with fire and you get burnt
For all the things that I have learnt
And I would love to walk you home
If not the one, then you're the first
For all the things that I have learnt
And I would love to be
The one to walk you home

And I would love to be
The one to walk you home
And I would love to be
The one to walk you home
Said I would love to be
The one to walk you home
Said I would love to be
The one to walk you home
(To be the one to walk you home)
Said I would love to be
(To be the one to walk you home)
The one to walk you home
(To be the one to walk you home)
And I would love to be
(To be the one to walk you home)
The one to walk you home
(To be the one to walk you home)
And I would love to be
(To be the one to walk you home)
The one to walk you home
(To be the one to walk you home)
Said I would love to be
(To be the one to walk you home)
The one to walk you home
Said I would love to be
The one to walk you home
Can I walk you home?
