[Verse 1]
Took in the meaning counting the loss
Even the roses died in the garden
You didn't mean it, but didn't you say
That me and the boys just give it away?
You in nirvana, me in the rain
Me at my worst and happy again
Already told you, love, you must be breaking up
[Chorus]
If you want me, you're the reason
For this permanent feeling I found
You've been holding out too long
If you want me, have some faith
There's a permanent place for you now
We've been waiting for too long
[Verse 2]
Totally harmless, maybe in vain
Take out the porcelain to put it away
Back in the garden, back in the dust
Why am I always making you run?
[Chorus]
If you want me, you're the reason
For this permanent feeling I found
You've been holding out too long
If you want me, have some faith
There's a permanent place for you now
We've been waiting for too long
[Bridge]
Tired of leaving, tired of loss
Tired of lonely, maybe I'm wrong
To take in the meaning a little too late
Well, why am I always making mistakes?
[Chorus]
If you want me, you're the reason
For this permanent feeling I found
You've been holding out too long
If you want me, have some faith
There's a permanent place for you now
We've been waiting for too long
