My Wildest Dreams

I find that now I'm always listening

God knows I used to talk so much

The ocean doesn't need the sailor

The sky was there before the doves

I spoke in riddles and in rhymes

But my time with you has taught me to simplify

You're not quite what I pictured you would be

You're better than my wildest dreams

I won't leave you when you're sleeping

I will be here when you awake

'Cause I've got ghosts and I've got demons

But they will not chase me away

'Cause I've been waiting all my life

For some reason that I never could describe

You're not quite what I pictured you would be

You're better than my wildest dreams

I'm not sure what I could give you

Whatever's mine is yours to take

I have never been a teacher

But let's both learn from my mistakes

'Cause it has taken me so long

To surrender what I hoped no one could see

You're not quite what I pictured you would be

You're better than my wildest dreams

You're not quite what I pictured you would be

You're better than my wildest dreams I find that now I'm always listening

God knows I used to talk so much

The ocean doesn't need the sailor

The sky was there before the doves

I spoke in riddles and in rhymes

But my time with you has taught me to simplify

You're not quite what I pictured you would be

You're better than my wildest dreams

I won't leave you when you're sleeping

I will be here when you awake

'Cause I've got ghosts and I've got demons

But they will not chase me away

'Cause I've been waiting all my life

For some reason that I never could describe

You're not quite what I pictured you would be

You're better than my wildest dreams

I'm not sure what I could give you

Whatever's mine is yours to take

I have never been a teacher

But let's both learn from my mistakes

'Cause it has taken me so long

To surrender what I hoped no one could see

You're not quite what I pictured you would be

You're better than my wildest dreams

You're not quite what I pictured you would be

You're better than my wildest dreams
