only a wave better days

Joshua Radin

I know I m never gonna make the same mistake
It s the one thing I know as I lie awake
I saw you as the sun but you re only a day
I saw you as the ocean but you re only a wave

Well, I asked for it all, you gave it to me
But what you gave was broken and I couldn t see
Everyone said I was blind, but I kept digging deeper
To see what I d find, and I found

I know there must be better days
Right around the corner
Maybe the life I m meant to live s
Out in California, someday

Now the nights are long and I can t sleep
And I can hear the people out there in the street
They see me in the window as they walk by
Separated by the glass as they re living their lives
And they say

I know there must be better days
Right around the corner
Maybe the life I m meant to live s
Out in California, someday
Someday

When the moon shines bright in the skies above
We re just kids and poets looking for love
And none of us ll know till the end is near
If we got what we wanted when the clouds have cleared

I know there must be better days
Right around the corner
I want the life they seem to live
Out in California, someday
Someday
Someday
