I got close to your skin While you were sleeping I taste the salt On your hands I reached out to touch you The morning light disarms you Won't you let me in? Ooh How long 'til your surrender? Ooh How long 'til your surrender? It's a long way For heart break Let your heart wait and bleed Ooh How long 'til your surrender to me? I've become your shadow I'd love, but don't know how to I'm always lost for words You look like a thousand suns I wanna be the only one Left when your day is done Ooh How long 'til your surrender? Ooh How long 'til your surrender? It's a long way For heart break Let your heart wait and bleed Ooh How long 'til your surrender to me? I can't have you close So I become a ghost And I watch you I watch you Maybe if you stay We could die this way I won't stop you I won't stop you Ooh How long 'til your surrender? Ooh How long 'til your surrender? Ooh How long 'til your surrender? Ooh How long 'til your surrender? It's a long way For heart break Let your heart wait and bleed Ooh How long 'til your surrender to me? Yeah To me It's a long way For heart break Let your heart wait and bleed Ooh How long 'til your surrender to me?
