I'll Find a Way
Rachael Yamagata · Happenstance
to see you again
I'll find a way
to see you again
I used to think that anything I'd do
wouldn't matter at all anyway
But now I find that when it comes to you
I'm the winner of cards I can't play
Wait for me
wait for me
Darling
I need you desperately
desperately here
And I'll find a way
to see you again
I'll find a way
to see you again
The rain is like an orchestra to me
Little gifts from above meant to say
Girl, you're falling at his feet
Isn't lovely or stunning today
Lay with me
lay with me
I'm alive when you're here with me
here with me
stay
And I'll find a way
to see you again
Yes I'll find a way
to see you again
Why do the street lamps die
When you're passing by
Like a hand that won't stay on my shoulder tonight?
If you held me close, would you laugh it away?
Would you dare the glance that I steal to stay?
And I'll find a way
to see you again
Yes I'll find a way
to see you again
I'll find a way
to see you again... (x4)
The rain'll bring (echo)
me down.
