John Newman - Down the Line

I've been battered, I've been bruised
And though I know it's no excuse
For you I know I'm right
And in another place, in another time
I'll buy you flowers, I'd build a home
Right now can't pay the bills, I cannot go
Can't give you anything you need

But maybe if you'll meet me
Further down the line
Cause you're the right person
At the wrong time

I wanna run into the light
And leave the dark behind
I wanna break the chains of life
With you right by my side so oh
You gotta meet me down the line so oh
You gotta meet me down the line

I'm easily dazed, I'm so confused
It's hurting me and I'm hurting you
Despite everything you do

You're gonna have to meet me
Further down the line
Cause you're the right person
At the wrong time

I wanna run into the light
And leave the dark behind
I wanna break the chains of life
With you right by my side so oh
You gotta meet me down the line so oh
You gotta meet me down the line

You've been trying hard
To make me feel a little better
It's gonna take a while
To make me feel a little better
And I'll try, try, try
Try a little harder uh yea
And I swear, swear
Swear I'll get a little further

I wanna run into the light
And leave the dark behind
I wanna break the chains of life
With you right by my side so oh
You gotta meet me down the line so oh
You gotta meet me down the line so oh
You gotta meet me down the line

I'm easily dazed, I'm so confused
It's hurting me and I'm hurting you
