Vanessa Carlton
"Heroes & Thieves"

Ill, disaster it strikes on a daily basis
And I'm looking for wisdom in all the wrong places
But still wanna laugh in disappointed faces
And you can't help me
Blinded by these

Heroes and thieves at my door
I can't seem to tell them apart anymore
And just when I figured it out
Well darlin' it's you I'm without

Well I'm stubborn and wrong
But at least I know it
I keep moving along
Until I can get through this
Maybe this song is the best I can do it
So I’m patiently waiting on these

Heroes and thieves at my door
I can't seem to tell them apart anymore
And just when I figured out
Well, darlin' it's you
Darlin' it's you
Well, darlin' it's you I'm without

Your comforting logic
Like these days are the ones I'll miss
And I see a solitude
That I can't find without you
Ah
da da da

It seems like I'm getting closer somehow
A flicker of peace that I’ve finally found
Thank you for believing in me now
'Cause I do need it

And give me a year or two
And I’ll mend my ways
And see these mistakes
And when I see the truth
Well darlin', trust me
When I can't see

I'll be coming back
I'll be coming back to you

These heroes and thieves at my door
And I can't seem to tell them apart anymore
And just when I figured out
Well darlin' it's you
Darlin', it's you,
Darlin', it's you I'm without
Ah
