Send you a song from Timbuktu Where the days are wrong and our pains are new I could close my eyes and indulge this confusion And let myself imagine you But I needed you more Oh I needed you more Oh I needed you more than you know To start anew Send you a song from Timbuktu As the morning fades and the silence blooms With a word of hope but there's just no reason to sing about love 'Cause I needed you more Oh I needed you more Oh I needed you more than you know To start anew But every time I broke down and cried I should've known that it was wrong to be leaning on you And God knows I was a fool I toss and turn in my slumber like crazy I feel the void of the hole in my soul I'm on the run cause this game is not over But this is a desert, a desert, my desert... Send you a song from Timbuktu But the words came out wrong and my voice is mute 'Cause I needed you more 'Cause I needed you more Oh I needed you more than you know To start anew Take this burden off your back Free your lungs, they're filled with sand Break the ocean with your hands
