Thief
written by Thomas Gorman & Tanya Donelly

.

She wears her dress high
As high as she pulls her hat down low
She's seeking out the places
those other people can't go and hold her

Untouched by the sea
(Untouched by the sea)
She's walking on water when she walks in her sleep
She's dragging me through places
I didn't want to be seen

She's a liar
As I am a thief
Because of you I came,
because of you I leave

I wanna know
(I wanna know)
Why the monsters that hurt you so
don't look like those things that
we battled so long ago

And I thought I did my part
when I pulled you out of there
that night you left boot marks on my wall

You are my liar
So I will be your thief
Because of you I came,

Because of you I leave
Because of you I leave
Because of you I leave - yeah

Wake up baby,
We are home now
Wake up baby,
We are home now
Wake up baby,

We are home now
We are home now
We are home now

We are home now
