Well I met you at the corner of my hope and my regret
Wasn't looking for an angel
Wasn't looking for you yet
The night I heard my self sing
The night I found a meaning
Near the white walls that were calling me
I tried to write a song for you but it just went and left me blue
Beneath the ground, the sun and stars
I lay with the princess of hearts

So let me show you my eye sight
We'll be the bell of the southern wild
Come show me why at first sight
Love moves quickly
Hello nice to meet you, I was wondering if I could walk you home!

I see rivers run the evergreen
I see dreams lost to the sand
I see crying for our families
As their lives slip through our hands

All my life has been leeching
Why give it all to you?
Yeah I think I need a teaching
Cause they say that I'm untrue
The best will pass and set you free
The love and all that you should be
And no I'm not the preacher's son
I'd love to be your only one

So let me show you my eye sight
We'll be the bell of the southern wild
Come show me why at first sight
Love moves quickly. Hello nice to meet you
I was wondering if I could walk you

But oh na, na
It ain't as easy as I make it sound
Love it sucks
It knocks you up and it knocks you down, nothing lost
Ever since I found

So let me show you my eye sight
We'll be the bell of the southern wild
Come show me why at first sight
Love moves quickly
Cause I spend hours remembering
And writing letters that I don't send
But this love is not just in my head
And I know, I've got a chance
