Never Laid a Hand On Your Heart |
| I feel your heart against my hand tonight |
| I taste the colors of your skin |
| I see you tremble like a butterfly |
| Will you let me in? |
| Will you let me in? |
| I drink the wine that lingers in your hair |
| I breath your need upon the wind |
| I run my fingers through you everywhere, |
| Ready to begin — ready to begin |
| But I never laid a hand on your heart |
| Even when it tore me apart |
| I only took what you gave from the start |
| Never promised more than a dream |
| Wonderful as it might have seemed |
| I always felt there was someone else |
| Beside us in the dark |
| So I never laid a hand on your heart |
| I hold your restless body in my arms |
| Until the fever leaves your skin |
| I feel your heart beat underneath my palms |
| And I let you in. As I let you in |
| There is no sorrow in this heart of mine |
| There is no future and no past |
| I only hope to hold the hands of time |
| Long as it can last. |
| Long as it can last |
| 'Cause I never laid a hand on your heart |
| Even when it tore me apart |
| I only took what you gave from the start |
| Never promised more than a dream |
| Wonderful as it might have seemed |
| I always felt there was someone else |
| Beside us in the dark |
| So I never laid a hand on your heart |
| On your heart |
| On your heart |
