As Close as I Came to Being Right - Acoustic Version Lyrics by Rhett Miller

The Dreamer: Acoustic Version

0

[Verse 1]
I thought you were the wind
That went through this house again
I thought you were the moon
Lighten up these empty rooms
[Verse 2]
I thought you were the sun
Shining down on everyone but me
I thought you were the night
And that’s as close as I came to being right
[Verse 3]
I saw you on the ground
Every time that I fell down
I saw you in the sky
Reaching out as I flew by
[Verse 4]
I heard you on the sea
Always calling out to me
Yeah, I saw you in the Northern Lights
And that’s as close I came to being right
[Verse 5]
I didn’t know it could grow so dark
I didn’t know it could break my heart
I thought it better not to put up a fight
And that’s as close as I came to being right
[Verse 6]
I thought you were the wind
Blowing through my home again
I thought you were the moon
Now nothing lights these empty rooms
[Verse 7]
Oh, I thought you were the sun
Spreading warmth on everyone but me
I thought you were the night
And that’s as close as I came to being right
That’s as close as I came to being right
