From the recording Walk Right Through

Lyrics

THE ONE I'VE NEVER MET WHO I LONG FOR

Something in your eyes just drew me in
Reminded me of who I’d been
Long before I learnt to talk
And sing and dance and drink myself into a trance

Yeah something in your eyes just felt like home
I thought finally someone I just know
We’ve never met before but I feel seen
Feel I could love you give you my entire being

Do you see this picture that I love to draw
Of the one I’ve never met who I long for

When this night has reached the end
May I be smiling at the ceiling
Feeling connected to something oh so much more
Than the one I’ve never met who I long for

I’m lying
I met you just the other night
Yeah, it felt so good it felt just right
But then I remembered I was high
Trying to forget the life that’s passed me by with all these
Daydreams of filmstars who one day will be my bride
What pain are these distractions trying to hide
Can it really be so bad just being alive
In this soup of cosmic daily derring do
When every moment is a golden Wonka ticket that never ends
An ineffable symphony of now and then
And the only pain that ever leaves me on the floor
Is from the one I’ve never met who I long for

When this night has reached the end
May I be smiling at the ceiling
Feeling connected to something oh so much more
Than the one I’ve never met who I long for

When this night has reached the end
May I be smiling at the ceiling
Feeling connected to something oh so much more
Than the one I’ve never met who I long for
