This front porch talk, this midnight walk
I've been waiting

What I don't know is how
to find the words to say it, oh, but

I am the puzzle, you are the pieces
I am the question, you are the reason

That starts everyday with you by my side

Oh, 'cause I am the puzzle, you are the pieces

You know I need ya (Oh, oh, oh)
Oh, I know, I know, I know
I know a preacher
Yeah, oh
Yeah, I know a preacher
