From the recording The Benefit of Doubt
Lyrics
Maybe you're what I've been looking for
Maybe you're the best I never had
I've been drinking longer than you've been sad
So maybe I'm perfect for you
Maybe you're perfect for me
Maybe stumbling over to you
Is the best man I can be
We've been waiting all our lives for right now
I'll finish this drink, stagger your way
I'll take your hand and flourish a bow
It's gonna be great for you
I have a little house somewhere
And almost every time I try
I manage to make it there
I planned a simple life
Where I forget my first wife
We'll have nothing to do, just me and you
We'll ride the stupor till dawn
We've been waiting all our lives for right now
I'll finish this drink, stagger your way
I'll take your hand and flourish a bow
I know I'm not your dream, and I don't want to be
Most things are just the way they seem, including me
But if I hold my head up high
If I hold my head up high, I just get dizzy
A little dizzy
I've been waiting for you
And now I'm feeling pretty sure
If time can heal all wounds
Just sitting here holds a promising cure
You could have a piece of this
And it could start with our first kiss
Haven't we waited all our lives for right now?
I'll finish this drink, stagger your way
I'll take your hand and flourish a bow
It's gonna be great for you
