Vanessa Carlton
Heroes & Thieves
[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
But you can't help me
I'm blinded by these

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
So I'm patiently
Waiting on these

[Chorus]
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

[Bridge 1]
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

[Verse 3]
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

[Bridge 2]
Give me a year or two
And I'll mend my ways
And see these mistakes
And when I see the truth
[Pre-Chorus 3]
Well darling trust me
When I can see
I'll be coming back
I'll be coming back 'cause there are

[Chorus]
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
