I needed time today, and I needed space,
and I found it all on these barren waves.
I could have called you to say I was gone,
but I never felt like I needed to.

I needed peace today, and I needed space,
and I felt my time slip into the glaze,
I reached behind me to grasp where I've gone,
and I found that you were there all along.

I don't leave cause I don't need you, I leave because I do,
and everyday that I'm away keeps me coming back to you.
I'm not asking you to sympathize, just know that I wander....
Yes, I roam sometimes.

I needed faith today to run by my side,
to stay through the wake when two lives collide,
and two yellowed sentiments await my return,
One tear stained postcard and love I don't deserve.

I don't leave cause I don't need you, I leave because I do,
and everyday that I'm away keeps me coming back to you.
I'm not asking you to sympathize, just know that I wander....
Yes, I roam sometimes.

I needed you today, I called out your name,
but you were not there you were far away.
You were not there, you were far away.
Someday you won't be so far away.
