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 |
