If I Wanted Someone
like the memory from your mother's house from before you got too oldlike the feeling from a photograph before it's meanings all got toldthe words I say can be silver, but what's left unsaid can be goldso get to know me once I go awaymaybe 'cause I come from such an empty-hearted townor maybe 'cause some love of mine had really let me downbut the only time I am lonely is when others are aroundI just never end up knowing what to sayif I wanted someone to clean me up, I'd find myself a maidif I wanted someone to spend my money, I wouldn't need to get paidif I wanted someone to understand me, I'd have so much more to sayI want you to make the days move easyI took everything I thought from what it means to be a manwe need words to be put to what we do not understandwhile you lean into the echoes and you do not raise a handoh woman, help me see it like it isif I wanted someone to clean me up, I'd find myself a maidif I wanted someone to spend my money, I wouldn't need to get paidif I wanted someone to understand me, I'd have so much more to sayI want you to make the days move easyif I wanted someone to clean me up, I'd find myself a maidif I wanted someone to spend my money, I wouldn't need to get paidif I wanted someone to cut me down, I'd have handed you the bladeI want you to make the days move easyI just want you to make the days move easy
