I watched you watching Dylan like you’re watching a saint And I could not help but notice everything he is I ain’t So I filled up every notebook I could put to my hand Hoping that you would not notice I was a boy and not a man Back then
Singing you to sleep and making you laugh Gave me a reason to work on my craft Now that I’m older I finally see You were the worst and the best thing that happened to me
I watched you watching Jesus like you’re watching a star Started praying you’d find room for both of us in your heart But the more I tried the more I’d find I could not pretend To give a damn for your religion or for all your shitty friends Back then
Every Sunday I would sit in your row Praying that one day you would finally notice But now that I’m older I finally see You were the worst and the best thing that happened to me
Show me the light Show me the light I’ll take it from here honey Show me the light Show me the light I’ll take it from here honey
