Place to Belong

lyrics

I’ve been here for a while thinking of things that we said—lying here in denial trying to get out of bed. Sometimes I’m so tired that I can’t be bothered to talk. Sometimes I’m so wired that I can’t stop running to walk. The nights have started growing longer—winter is well on its way. I can feel it getting stronger—daylight is fading away. Sometimes I can’t (still) buy in to all that you’re trying to teach me. Sometimes I start crying whenever you’re trying to reach me and maybe you were right all along—you can’t blame the singer for the song. I wish that I could always be strong and find a place I belong. Winter will come and go and, soon enough, it will be spring. Ice will melt—rivers flow and, soon enough, birds start to sing. Sometimes I still wander around all the places we stayed. Sometimes I still wonder why memories remain and some fade and maybe you were right all along—you can’t blame the singer for the song. I wish that I could always be strong. Maybe you were right all along—you can’t blame the singer for the song. I wish that I could always be strong and find a place to belong. So go back to the start, find your favourite part and just sing with your heart. Don’t worry; it won’t be long until you find a place to belong. Oh, you’ll find a place to belong. Yeah, you’ll find a place to belong…
