	Lyrics Advent of You words and music by Allison Tartalia ©2001 So I’d like to take this chance with you I have had enough of this being alone But I am a loner—I have rarely shared a room And I am used to having all the covers Don’t expect that’s going to change With the advent of you Well I have bad habits—I throw fits, have sulky moods I drink my milk straight from the carton Don’t expect that’s going to change In the advent of you And I’ll have excuses for my immobility And though I push you away I hope You’ll insist I let you stay For the advent of me Cause your energy is a moonbeam That is blue and clear and bright And I am longing for the courage To stand within your light But I come home alone to dark And empty rooms at night And all I can do is pick up my guitar and write Said all I can do is pick up this guitar and -- I write… So I’d like to take this chance with you I have had enough of this being alone But I’ll have excuses for the reasons I can’t call And I’m hoping you’ll want me enough To deny me them all Cause I am afraid, I am just afraid But I am trying to arrange for some boldness and change In the advent of you…
