The Fray-You Found Me

I found God
On the corner of First and Amistad
Where the west Was all but won
All alone
Smoking his last cigaretteI said, Where you been?
He said, Ask anything:
Where were you
When everything was falling apart?
All my days
Were spent by the telephone
That never rang
And all I needed was a call
It never came To the corner of First and Amistad

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why’d you have to wait? Where were you, where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, You found me

In the end
Everyone ends up alone
Losing her The only one who’s ever known
Who I am Who I’m not, and who I want to be
No way to know
How long she will be next to me

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why’d you have to wait?
Where were you, where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, You found me

Early morning The city breaks
I’ve been calling For years and years and years and years
And you never left me no messages
You never sent me no letters
You got some kind of nerve
Taking all I want

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Where were you, where were you?
Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why’d you have to wait?
Where were you, where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, You found me
Why’d you have to wait
To find me, to find me?

If I found God on the corner of the street...this song is probably how I'd feel too.
But deep down I know that it wasn't Him who got lost, I strayed away first. So...technically He didn't find me. He knew exactly where I was, what I was doing, and why I strayed in the first place....but here He is...still waiting on me to turn my life back around to where it's supposed to.

Thanks for not giving up on me...and for not letting me give up on myself.
