lyrics

Somedays I'm a catch, others a release
Sometimes I'm a war and others I'm peace
But that don't help us now
No that won't help us now
Somedays I'm the light, others I'm the dark
Sometimes I'm the rain and other times the spark
But that don't help us now
No that won't help us now

There's a window and there's a door
And one's left open a little more
If you should lose your way
Well I'd wish you'd stay
At least until you find
That little stitch in time that you've been waiting for

Somedays I'm a gem, others I'm black coal
Sometimes I lose my mind while others I'm in control
But that don't help us now
No that won't help us now
Somedays I'm insane, others I make sense
Sometimes I stand my ground and others I'm on the fence
But that don't help us now
No that won't help us now

There's a window and there's a door
And one's left open a little more
If you should lose your way
Well I'd wish you'd stay
At least until you find
That little stitch in time
At least until you find what it is you can't define

And if it ain't me, babe
No, no, no, if it ain't me, babe
I don't know what you're looking for, babe
