All I'm asking for now
Is that you need nothing more
And that you let nothing come between
Our fragile hearts

We walk together
Knowing where we've been
Knowing that mistakes will be mistaken again
But that's past tense and
It doesn't have to make sense

Because in the still of your hands
Anything can happen
With every kiss
Nothing is impossible

In the comfort of your arms
I find my safe haven
With every beat of my heart
My love speaks in silence and
You're all it's asking for

You do things to me that I can't explain
I see your picture
I smell your skin on the pillow
Lying next to me and
Whenever I'm not with you
I feel myself start to waste away

When you wrap your arms around my waist
I will breathe against your pains
Just exhale and let the past go away
Empty smile with a naked heart
Whoever I was just falls apart

When you're here inside of me
I want you to feel me until you're numb
And all your depth perception is gone
Touch me until the taste of love never leaves your lips
Pull me in, take me out, and I'll make you whole again

I'll lose myself just to find a place
Inside your mind
I'll change myself just to stand alone
In your eyes

Read the wave, ride your fears
In this ocean of love
We've been drowning in
I'll take you deeper until you find
What's hidden in every corner of my mind

Sever the sky, bury the lies
Forget the time
And leave your past behind
These feelings fall like a landslide
When both our dreams collide

Reach into my eyes
Until I feel you in my veins and
I'll put my lips on your scars of hurt and shame
Just give me your darkest nights and all your broken dreams
I will fill the empty space and burn the memories...
I can fix it if you show me where it hurts.
