29 Years

Matthew Berninger

Could you tell re-enchantment I said goodbye
I met a girl named disillusionment
Could you tell her I made the headlines
This is a boy who draws wings on everything

Could you tell her to check the headlines
This is a boy who finds angels in the river
You know I dreamed about you
For twenty-nine years before
I saw you

You know I dreamed about you
I missed you for twenty-nine years
Birds flyin' out of order
Underneath the sky

I'll run up to the rainbow girl
Just to pass her by
And I'll never have a change of heart
I've sworn I'd never sing

I have no heart this one is gone
And now I wear the wings
You know I dreamed about you
For twenty-nine years before
I saw you

You know I dreamed about you (twenty-nine years)
I missed you for twenty-nine years
You know I dreamed about you
For twenty-nine years before I saw you

You know I dreamed about you
For twenty-nine years
Before I saw you
