Once I was a broken bottle
Lying in a crowded bar
Waiting for the band to start again
And from the floor I'd stare up
At the bright lights and the silhouettes
Cast along the wall behind your head
Oh I would wait
For you to find me there
I would be a letter
Bold and unapologetic
I'd have myself delivered to your hands
And you would know me by the way
My word curve up around the page
And form a poem I could not read out loud
Oh I would wait
And you would know me then
Have you ever begged to ask a question
Of a song or tried to know someone
By following their words?
'Cause sometimes you're a broken bottle
Waiting to be undiscovered
In between the bright lights and the door
Oh I would wait
And you would find me there
Oh I would wait
And you would find me there
