What You Came to Find

1. There’s a coat across your shoulders
   A burden on your soul
   And words of desperation
   Written clear across the whole
   But Babe, before you close this door
   I need to know your mind
   So tell me: Are you leaving here
   With what you came to find?
2. I heard you when you called my name
   I helped you through the night
   You told me that my words were wrong
   But then you made them right
   And still I see I’ve lost your heart
   To that I am resigned
   But tell me: Are you leaving now
   With what you came to find?
3. I found you in this empty room
   I tried to set you free
   I gave you all I had and soon
   Your life surrounded me
   So much was left before us
   Now so much is left behind
   Oh tell me: Are you moving on
   With what you came to find?
4. In every night’s maneuvering
   In each reluctant game
   You captured and released me
   Then you captured me again
   You kept me at a distance
   But your words were always kind
   So tell me: Are you leaving me
   With what you came to find?

5. The pleasures of departure
   And the fear of reaching home
   Are hidden by the laughter
   Of the good times that we’ve known
   But now you need a stranger’s touch
   These tangles to unwind
   But tell me: Are you leaving here
   With what you came to find?
6. You’ve stepped beyond the doorway now
   You’re out there in the cold
   We took your copper ring
   But couldn’t turn it into gold
   I see what came between us now
   My love’s no longer blind
   It’s good to know you’re leaving here
   With what you came to find
   
   It’s good to know you’re leaving here
   With what you came to find
