Invite me to your home
To show me the wall
That's lockin' me out
Your touches grant me windows
To see what it is
My reach is without

But behind me
There's abyss
Oh, honey, don't leave me like this

She glides out so sweetly
To beckon me in
With a one-sided dimple
But closer now
She's shoving aggressively
I know I'm gonna fall

I expected to feel you grip my shirt
Heave me up, cryin'
Please don't be hurt
So I close my eyes
Pretend that I can fly

I sleep soundly
Only to wake and to find
That I am still dreaming
Shaken out of my trance
In the same way you shake
Away all meaning

But behind me
There's abyss
Oh, honey, don't leave me like this

I expected to feel you grip my shirt
Heave me up, cryin'
Please don't be hurt
So I close my eyes
Pretend that I can fly

Icy hearts deal smiles so frosty they freeze
My bones to the marrow
But you, your warm clear laugh
Bring sunlight so soft, the waters grow shallow

But you're fire
You can burn
For pain like this
My body yearns

I expected to feel you grip my shirt
Heave me up, cryin'
Please don't be hurt
So I close my eyes
Pretend that I can fly
I expected to feel you grip my shirt
Heave me up, cryin'
Please don't be hurt
So I close my eyes
Pretend that I can fly
