Lyrics Heroes & Thieves - Vanessa Carlton

Heroes & Thieves

Well disaster
It strikes on a daily basis
I’m looking for wisdom
In all the wrong places
But still want to laugh
In disappointed faces
But you can’t help me
I’m blinded by these
Heroes and thieves at my door
I can’t seem to tell them apart anymore
And just when I’ve figured it out
Oh, darling it’s you I’m without
Well I’m stubborn and wrong
But at least I know it
I keep moving along
And hope I can get through this
But 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’ve figured it out
Oh, darling it’s you, darling it’s you
Oh, darling it’s you I’m
Without your comforting logic
Like these days are the ones I’ll miss
And I seek a solitude
That I can’t find without you
Well 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
Give me a year or two
And I’ll mend my ways
And see these mistakes
And when I see the truth
Well darling trust me
When I can see
I’ll be coming back
I’ll be coming back 'cause there are
Heroes and thieves at my door
I can’t seem to tell them apart anymore
Just when I’ve figured it out
Oh, darling it’s you, darling it’s you
Well, darling it’s you I’m without
