[Verse 1] I used to fall for lightning Anything that split the sky Called the burning something sacred Called the waiting being wise I could turn a little kindness Into everything I’d need Build a whole damn love story From what I wanted to believe [Pre-Chorus] So if you’re listening up there I’ve learned a thing or two Don’t send me someone I can save Or someone I have to prove [Chorus] Just point him my way Don’t make him perfect, make him real Someone who says what he means And isn’t scared of what he feels Give him his own road, his own fire A restless heart that likes to roam Someone who can wander beside me And still know how to come home I don’t need forever promised today Just point him my way [Verse 2] Let him take the road that’s longer Just to see where that one goes Stop for pie in some small town Dance barefoot by the radio Let him laugh at all my questions Have a few strange ones of his own And when I disappear into creating Let him love me enough to let me go [Pre-Chorus] I’ve got a life I finally love I won’t disappear again I don’t need somebody’s missing half I want a whole man walking in [Chorus] So point him my way Don’t make him perfect, make him real Someone who says what he means And isn’t scared of what he feels Give him his own road, his own fire A restless heart that likes to roam Someone who can wander beside me And still know how to come home I don’t need forever promised today Just point him my way [Bridge] No more mysteries to solve No more reading between lines No more turning almost into always Just because I want it to be mine Give me someone I don’t have to dream Into loving me And if he smells like trouble In the very best way— Well… Point him my way [Final Chorus] Point him my way A little steady, a little wild Someone who still gets curious Like the world’s his first time outside Let him want the fire in me Without trying to put it out Let him know exactly who he is When I’m not around And if he’s somewhere wondering Where a woman like me might be You don’t have to make him love me Just point him down my street [Outro] I’ll leave the porch light on But I won’t wait by the door If he finds me, he finds me I’ve got a life to live until then
