lyrics

first my fate was
to be lied to
cuz i liked it
and i lied, too
then my fate was
on its round two
out of two rounds
it stopped--
it said “here i am
here i am

“come embrace me
i'm yr long-lost
i'm yr comeback
i'm yr here-i-am
don't waste me
cuz i won't last long
and i won't come back
i'm yr here-i-am
i'm yr here-i-am”

slowly it comes 'round again
second time--still it's not sure
first time i lied
said, “i'm not ready yet”
and it slammed the door
after suffering all the scabs falling off
i can lie no more
now one last try
and it's so closeby
in the starlight
in the streetlight
in the headlight
in the houselight
in the half-light
in the no light
even then, it's so bright
you can't help but hear,
“here i am

“embrace me
i'm yr long-lost
i'm yr comeback
i'm yr here-i-am
don't waste me
cuz i won't last long
and i won't come back
i won't come back
i'm yr here-i-am
i'm yr here-i-am”
