| [00:19.800] |
I can only say these things to you while you're sleeping |
| [00:25.790] |
I hear the hum from the wires and the sounds of the morning creep in |
| [00:32.100] |
I lie awake and pretend you can hear me |
| [00:36.588] |
|
| [00:49.398] |
And you tell me that you're scared that you're turning into your mother |
| [00:55.158] |
And I feel myself turn into my father |
| [01:00.638] |
We could lie to each other like they do and say we're so happy |
| [01:07.699] |
It's easy when you're young and you still want it so badly |
| [01:12.278] |
And I feel my heart pounding |
| [01:12.490] |
|
| [01:18.188] |
And I think that I might scream |
| [01:24.168] |
I can tell you that you're all I ever wanted, dear |
| [01:24.990] |
|
| [01:26.899] |
And I can utter every word you've ever hope to hear |
| [01:29.918] |
But I shudder when I think that I might not be here forever, forever, forever |
| [01:35.539] |
|
| [01:47.579] |
That night you whispered like a ghost and you looked so shaken |
| [01:52.698] |
You were so quiet and small and you tell me you wanted to be taken |
| [01:58.598] |
I just never think of you as the kind of girl who would say that |
| [02:04.989] |
And you suddenly seem like some faceless thing in my grasp |
| [02:10.538] |
Your eyes so wide, your face so low |
| [02:16.900] |
It's the face of someone I don't know |
| [02:22.340] |
I can tell you that you're all I ever wanted, dear |
| [02:25.400] |
And I can utter every word you'd ever hope to hear |
| [02:28.320] |
Shudder when I think that I might not be here forever, forever, forever |
| [02:34.380] |
|
| [03:15.300] |
And all I could think is that it must be a kind of rebellion |
| [03:20.510] |
To arm our fears like soldiers and slay them. |
| [03:26.290] |
I can tell you that you're all I've ever wanted, dear |
| [03:28.990] |
Through the dim while you're breathing, while you're sleeping in here |
| [03:32.170] |
Waken and you ask me if I'm going to be here forever, forever, forever |
| [03:38.228] |
Your face so twisted and your eyes are light |
| [03:40.650] |
I want to tell I can save you when you cry at night |
| [03:43.530] |
But I'd be lying |
| [03:49.740] |
Love is defying |
| [03:55.579] |
|
