Only a Wave(Better Days) (Acoustic) - 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
