I know your heartbeat well enough to know that's you outside my door
Standing still, head in your hands holding back the rain
I'm stuck, still, frozen wanting to get up and let you in
To kiss you, to feel the ahhhh that only you can give me
But now in this room things seem different, it's quieter, the air is
Warm, almost as if I lost never lost to your eyes

Eyes say goodnight, fixed on the door
At which you stood when you told me
Everything will be alright and
You're the answer to the war I fight inside!
I bury my face into the sheets
They smell of you, for yet I miss
How in every little kiss there be
The essence that alone makes me dream sweet

(Do I tell of anything at all?

Light itself shall turn for home
Now when the sun sleeps it sleeps alone)

What of this heart without her?
Nothing but a tiny place that never knew what it could do!

Rip me open, take what you want
Share in the strength that gathered in me
Beside a painted pity with a lovely fair face
Morning will say hello it's a new day

I tell you now while half asleep
As my breathing slows I'll wait for you
You can hear my heart beating so low
Every word is for you my dear

There is not enough time to learn
Everything I need to tell you

In silence we leave
Through that door you stood
Watching me sleep and dream!

Rip me open, take what you want
Share in the strength that has gathered in me
Beside a painted pity with a lovely fair face
Morning will say hello it's a new day
I never shall come near, if I lose these hands
Another two as gentle as yours

Song be like the air, find you well

Are you trembling to welcome it?
