Two changes I noticed:

Well, disaster it strikes on a daily basis
And I'm looking for wisdom in all the wrong places
But still wanna laugh at disappointed faces
And you can't help me
Blinded by these

Heroes and thieves at my door
I can't seem to tell them apart anymore
And just when I figured it out
Well darlin' it's you I'm without

Well I'm stubborn and wrong
But at least I know it
I keep moving along
And hope I can get through this
Maybe this song is the best I can do it
So I’m patiently waiting on these

Heroes and thieves at my door
I can't seem to tell them apart anymore
And just when I figured out
Well, darlin' it's you
Darlin' it's you
Well, darlin' it's you I'm without

Your comforting logic
Like these days are low ones
I'll kiss, and I see a solitude
That I can't find without you
Ah
da da da

It seems like I'm getting closer to him
A flicker of peace that I’ve finally found
Thank you for believing in me now
Cause I do need it

And give me a year or two
And I’ll mend my ways
And see these mistakes
And when I see the truth
Well darlin', trust me
When I can't see

I'll be coming back
I'll be coming back to you

These heroes and thieves at my door
And I can't seem to tell them apart anymore
And just when I figured out
Well darlin' it's you
Darlin', it's you,
Darlin', it's you I'm without
Ah

I really like the song. It has a Billy Joel sound to me. It's kind of like the music you would hear from a carousel. I like the cheerful side of V better than the dark one. Another winner on the new album.

yeah.... I think this is as accurate as we can get and everything seems to make sense..... good job everyone :thumbsup:  I wonder if this album will have the whole "first half light and happy- second half dark and edgy" thing like BNN and Harmonium.....
and if you don't believe me... just Put Your Hands On Me
