Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Fortune up and left me on the hotel floor
Well, you know she never paid me no mind
I was lying in the corner making eyes at the door
They say it's good to start the story with a tragedy
[Verse 2]
The day I finally met you like I knew I would
You raised me from the wreck of my doubt
You were smiling to yourself as if we both understood
The silent language of the anguish of a heart that sings
But doesn't make a sound
[Verse 3]
What did I do to deserve you?
How did you find me?
I was already halfway gone
You were a bright light
You were a fistfight, oh
[Verse 4]
Nobody told me all the patience it take
For the sky to open up around me
They said love is grabbing blindly
At a pit full of snakes
And wait to feel the only heel
Among the rows of all the venomous teeth
[Verse 5]
And what did I do to deserve you?
How did you find me?
I was already halfway gone
And you were a bright light
You were a fistfight, oh
[Verse 6]
Our love is older than the Great Wall
Our love spins a gun around its finger
Our love has found its way into our mouths before
Cut our teeth until we swallowed it whole
[Verse 7]
Our love hums low beneath the floorboards
Our love grows flowers in the winter
Our love has found it's way onto our tongues before
There is more, so take a bite and let it linger
[Verse 8]
What did I do to deserve you?
How did you find me?
I was already halfway gone
You were a bright light
You were a fistfight, oh
[Verse 9]
What did I do to deserve you?
How did you find me?
I was already halfway gone
You were a bright light
You were a fistfight, oh
