When you speak,I feel the colour of my smile
Shifting like a crystal in an unexpected ray of
sunlight
When you listen,
It's like trying to hold the ocean
Words gush through my fingers til they're crashing,
splashing
round your feet
If I could only sing my life with you
A different voice would come shimmering through
This fear would disappear then I could breathe.
Oh
When I wrap my arms around you
Like a tender fortress you will love me gently
Safe at arms length
No
It leaves me choking on desire
All this deeper music I must wrangle, strangle
Swallow in defeat
If I could only sing my life with you
A different voice would come shimmering through
This fear would disappear then I could breathe
If only I could breathe
