lyrics

We found ourselves on Tinder
She’ll be a 50 year old man they’d say
But I was desperate as ote
So I put on my coat
Saw her waiting there and she said “Hey”

We talked about work & music
Over a pint of real ale & white wine
Was as shy as she pretty
Shined bright in this city
Got a tad drunk, but we had a good time

Took her to a fancy restaurant
The type that don’t do burger and chips
She talked about her travels
Her life & her sorrows
As I sunk in her eyes and her lips

And I hope you’ve found your reason
I hope you’ve found your way
I hope you’ve found a better place
A better place to stay
And I hope you’ve found your reason
I hope you’ve found your way
I hope you’ve found a better place
A better place to stay

After a month or so of chatting
I travelled to her home town, Its not that far
We had drinks and lost time
She said “why not stop at mine”
I left smiling from that old dusty bar

Woke the next day, she's still sleeping
And her nose twitches like the girl from bewitched
She wakes and leans over
Pulls me a little closer
As we sink in her old blanket stitch

And I hope you’ve found your reason
I hope you’ve found your way
I hope you’ve found a better place
A better place to stay
And I hope you’ve found your reason
I hope you’ve found your way
I hope you’ve found a better place
A better place to stay

Now times passed by and we’re not together
And to say that brings a lump to my throat
Id be lying if id say
I didn’t miss here each day
Maybe one day she’ll hear this song I wrote

We still text ‘cause I wanna know
How here weeks been and hows the cat
She’s had troubles but she’s fine
We had a good time …
Maybe soon we can meet for a chat

And I hope you’ve found your reason
I hope you’ve found your way
I hope you’ve found a better place
A better place to stay
And I hope you’ve found your reason
I hope you’ve found your way
I hope you’ve found a better place
A better place to stay
And I hope you’ve found your reason
I hope you’ve found your way
I hope you’ve found a better place
A better place to stay
And I hope you’ve found your reason
I hope you’ve found your way
I hope you’ve found a better place
A better place to stay
