We see the same sun in the sky We see the same stars every night I wanna be there in the dark when your world falls apart I wanna break through every wall Just to show you I am yours and take a chance on you again You are my everything For you I dream of what could be I'd write a thousand symphonies I'd lose it all to get you back You are everything I wanna love you but my heads says no I wanna kiss you but I don't come close I wanna tell you that I love you so Doing it all for your love, but I know that it's never enough I know it's never enough, never enough Living in between the lights Missing you before we say goodbye It's you I love the most But are we chasing ghosts? When I go to sleep at night I wanna feel you by my side For you I'd bleed, I'd die To see you when I open my eyes For you I dream of what could be I'd write a thousand symphonies I'd lose it all to get you back You are everything I wanna love you but my heads says no I wanna kiss you but I don't come close I wanna tell you that I love you so Doing it all for your love, but I know that it's never enough I know it's never enough, never enough How long must I wait How long must I wait for you I'll wait for you How long must I wait How long must I wait for you I'll wait for you yeah I wanna love you but my heads says no I wanna kiss you but I don't come close I wanna tell you that I love you so Doing it all for your love, but I know that it's never enough I know that it's never enough, never enough
