the sun has blessed, the rays are gone
and all the kids have left their tears and gone home
sweet 17, sour 29
and i can't explain myself what i hope to find
you're all so kind without her here
baby i need you around
baby i need you around
maybe i need you
maybe i need you all right now
baby i need you around
i had no luck
i had no shame
i had no cause, just 17 days of rain
and you in my eyes
just one more song to slay this earth
and i can't explain myself just what it's worth
it's all i had, but not all i need
and i can't escape the fact that i still bleed
it's all too steep without her here
baby i need you around
baby i need you around
baby i need you around
i had no voice
i had no drive
i had no choice
i had no crime
i had myself
i had my band
i had my love
i had no hand in watching it all fall apart
baby i need you around
baby i need you around
maybe i need you
maybe i need you all right now
baby you need me around
