|
In the middle of the night, I may watch you go |
|
There'll be no value in the strength of walls that I have grown |
|
There'll be no comfort in the shade of the shadows thrown |
|
But I'll be yours if you'll be mine |
|
Stretch out my life and pick the seams out |
|
Take what you like, but close my ears and eyes |
|
Watch me stumble over and over |
|
I have done wrong, so build your tower |
|
But call me home and I will build a throne |
|
And wash my eyes out never again |
|
But love the one you hold |
|
And I'll be your goal |
|
A lover of the light |
|
Skin too tight and eyes like marbles |
|
You spin me high so watch me as I glide |
|
Before I tumble homeward, homeward |
|
I know I tried, I was not stable |
|
Flawed by pride, I miss my sanguine eyes |
|
So hold my hands up...breathe in, breathe out. |
|
But love the one you hold |
|
And I'll be your goal |
|
To have and to hold |
|
A lover of the light |
|
And in the middle of the night, I may watch you go |
|
There'll be no value in the strength of walls that I have grown |
|
There'll be no comfort in the shade of the shadows thrown |
|
You may not trust the promises of the change I'll show |
|
But I'll be yours if you'll be mine |
|
So love the one you hold |
|
And I will be your goal |
|
To have and to hold |
|
A lover of the light |
|
So love the one you hold |
|
And I will be your goal |
|
To have and to hold |
|
A lover of the light |
